Vernon,

My first impression is that you probably have *not* got both monitors set the same (I know you said they are).
Large fonts versus small fonts would DEFINITELY make a difference, but I have never seen the colors range have *ANY* impact on displayed size.
IF you say that Small Fonts on your machine makes all other Windows app screen too small, then it seems a safe bet that you NORMALLY operate with Large Fonts yourself.

After resetting the User's machine to 800x600 and Large Fonts, re-boot right away to see if that gives any better result.

I guess it is also possible that yuor machine is really 1024x768.

Good Luck,
Jim N.

>I am fairly new to programming in FPW2.5 (there isn't a section for that version, so I'm leaving it here) with several years' experience in FPD2.5. I have created a screen which allows input/edit for 59 fields. It looks fine on my PC, but when I try to run it on the user's PC, the fields have all been squished together horizontally. You can still see most of the fields, but their labels (like Name:, SSN:, etc) are usually obscured or hidden by fields to their right.
