Screen sizes are not supporint my program

[Prince]

Hi all,

I developed a program in Access, and now I am implementing it I got one PC
with 15inch screen my forms are big for that monitor (all command buttons are
not showing on the screen) but working good on 17 inch where I developed.

Please advise solution which fits all size of screens.

Thanks in advance

Access does not scall well to difference resolution screens. It's not the
size of the monitor that's the problem. Rather it's the screen resolution.
See if you can change it by right clicking on the Windows desktop and going
to properties. Of course things will look tiny on the smaller screen.

When I start a new database on a multi-user environment, I have a checklist
that includes the minimum monitor size; screen resolution; minimum number of
colors; and font sizes. Something for you to consider in the future.

There is code to automatically resize form and reports:

It would probably be cheaper and faster to replace the one small monitor to
something newer and larger.
