>I haven't been able to find anything about this in our manuals or on the net. I have recently transported a good size fox 2.6 for windows app with many screens, all of which seem to be too large for the mac screen, to Mac 2.6 fox. The screens seem to all be too wide and run off the right or left hand side. I checked the screen resolutions on the mac and ibm side and everything seems normal. I tried a number of different resolutions and monitors on the mac, and nothing seemed to effect it. I'm hoping there is some little known config setting that fixes this so I don't have to rewrite all of these screens. Any ideas?

Ed,
Look at the font your are using between the 3 operating systems... Try to use a font for all the screens that are True Type and that are supported on all 3 platforms..


( And for a more interesting answer, if you have to develop 2.x apps that will run on a Mac, Under Windows and DOS, look at F1, they have a new version of FoxExpress that will build apps that ARE crossplatform compatibile...)

Thanx!
