>>>Hi,
>>>
>>>I am finishing a VFP app that I designed for a Windows tablet (I thought it would take me 3 days but it has been 3 weeks; the same story :).

>>>Do I need to do anything "special" to make the VFP app to work with touch screen?

>2. Why use textbox for numeric? The spinner does not work?

I use 240 for all controls. For make run my application all resolutions with zoommed. A touch screen application should be fill screen all time.
sample If you intend to write 1000 spinner will be a bad idea.
