[Quoted] Hello Rick!

This is what I do to check the apperance in different resolutions. I have found a nice program from microsofts developers team. It is free for download from the microsofts web. The tool is QuickRes. By clicking it's Icon gives a list of different screen resolutions to select. In that way it is possible to see how the OPO-application will look on different screen res.

OPO forms shows pixel by pixel. That means it will change size in different resolutions. Also the selected screenfont size (by rigt clicking the desktop) will affect the appearace.

When you are distributing a OPO application you must make sure that all fonts you are using is installed on the target machine. I'm using the Wise installation program that fixes all the distributing issues like distributing, fonts, dlls, ocx registering and setting upp the Power Objects Lite ODBC.
