Debra,

Whenever possible, I try to design my forms to be resizable. Then I design for a 640x480 display (minus Windows task bar, app title bar, menu bar, toolbar, etc.)

There are several classes in the downloads section that you can use to build resizable forms. I use my own code as some of my forms not only resize, but add additional controls as they get bigger. An example of an additional control is a 'help pane' where additional help can be displayed as a user moves between controls - sort of like a permenantly open 'whats this help' window.

Regards,
Malcolm
