Nadya,

>1) I've developed my applications few years ago on Windows 2000 with resolution 800 * 600. Now I have Windows XP at home, 1024 * 768 resolution and trying to run these applications. They look completely different, and some things are even wrong. For instance, my colleague sent me one of my applications with her later revisions. She added a button to the form which is supposed to display a grid beneath the other grid. However, the lowest grid is not displayed on my screen. I see just the horisontal scrollbar of it instead. And even if I change my resolution to 800*600, I still do not see that grid. (If someone wants to see it, I can send screen shots).

Is it possible that the 1024 system is using Large Fonts?

>2) When I run my applications in development environment, the Command Window remains on top. This is especially annoying if I'm running modal form. In this case I can do nothing with Command window, and it obscures the view. How do you solve this little problem?

Turn off dockable on the CW.
