Incorrect text display in forms

P

Peter

Hi everyone,

I made a database with Access 2002 on my computer
(running WinXP Pro) and everything is perfect. When I
open the same database on a different computer, still on
WinXP Pro (installed with my own version of Office XP),
there's a graphical bug on all of my forms in Access: it
looks like some of the text boxes are now too short for
the text size it needs, so letters at the end of the
label field are missing and even some buttons I did are
now too small for the text it contains.

I left enough text spaces on all my form fields and
buttons and still the same problem on other computers I
tried (not all of them however).

Please, I need help!
Thank you for any tips you may have...

Peter

Check Control Panel / Display / Appearance tab. The problem computer may
have Font Size set to large or extra large while the computer you designed
the database is set to normal.
