Hi Nadya,

I'm not sure this would work in you instance, but have you tried using the _resizable class in the foundation classes? We do with success. We place it on all of our forms.

>>>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).

>I am using normal font and theme says: Modified theme. I asked this question on Russian forum and was told, that in some themes the controls become slightly bigger, as well as form's title bar. I notice this effect myself. But what we should do about it? BTW, I can send you screen shots, if you like.

>>>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?
