VB program works differently in different monitors

hello everyone,
I am facing a peculiar problem.
I was working in my labs on 17" monitor on VB program and nwo a days om working on the same program on my 15" monitor @home.
The problem is that due to the difference in the monitor size, my forms are messed up and some of my controls have disappeared.
Though i have restyructured according to my needs @ home, but i am sure when i take it back to the lab i will face the problem again.
Can ne1 guide me regarding this to keep the form of the same size and to work in different sizes monitor.
Thanks
Pallavi

 

Hey pallavimahajan,

First off my VB is a little rusty, but if i remember correctly there is a property of every element on a form for the measurement used when calculating its position. Unfortunately i dont have VB installed at the moment but the property is right at thje bottom of the list (the list with caption, name etc in it) and i think some of the options in it are cm's inches etc. Play around with some of these.

Once again my VB is rusty, this could be a figment of my imagination but i am pretty certain you can change the measurements VB uses for its positioning.


Hope it helps
