Resizing forms for different screen resolutions

[John S. Ford, MD]

Does anyone know of a painless way of resizing a form with all of its
controls, subforms, tab controls, etc in access 97 or 2000?

I created a database on a computer with a screen resolution of 1440 by 900.
Now I want to run it on computers where the resolution is closer to 800 by
600. All the forms now look horrible (way to big).

I could redesign each form bit by bit but the thought of this is daunting.

Any ideas?
