I create adhoc reporting MS Access dbs for general users. The users in my company have different monitors (makes and sizes). When I format my form on my PC, the form is centered and all objects can be viewed without scrolling, however, when I pull up the db with anothr user at a different workstation on their PC, the form is sometimes skewed, off-center, or off-page where the user has to use navigation and or scroll bars to view the entire form.
Is there some place in the setup, design, or properties of the form to have it automatically format to each user's monitor, so it will always be centered and look the same as it does when I finalize the form from my station?
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you. |

Unless told otherwise I design my systems for 1024x768. Some folks who use my systems have monitors that are 18" from thier keyboard so can put papers there they use for other apps. Other folks have vision problems and are only given 15" monitors by thier employers. Etc, etc.
