>Right Click on the Windows Desktop and select Properties >> Settings >> Advanced. Change the dpi from 96 to 120. In VFP7, an 8pt font will be displayed as a 10pt. In VFP8 the font is unchanged.

I've been running with large fonts for years and have been bugging the Fox team about bugs relating to large fonts for nearly as long. I'm not aware of changes on that front other than the fact that in VFP 7 or 8 (I can't remember which at the moment), the team finally fixed all the Solutions Samples so they work in large fonts.

I just tested this. I opened VFP 7 (SP1) and VFP (SP1). In each, I issued MODIFY FILE and changed the font for the window to 8 pt. Courier New. I typed the same string into each and they displayed identically.

Can you give exact steps to reproduce what you're seeing?
