I have a project that I routinely access from either of two different
workstations. One computer has a 15" monitor, and when I open a form in
design mode, I see the entire form. The other computer has a 19" monitor,
and the display is set to 1024 x 768. On that workstation, when I open a
form in design mode, only the upper left 640x 480 appears over a white area.
The rest of the screen has a gray background. I can drag the title bar of
the form to the left to make the right side of the form visible, but I can't
find a way to make the entire form viewable, even though it's much smaller
than 1024 x 768. Suggestions? TIA

change the settings in Tools/Options/Forms/Max design area
set to default to keep the setting for future sessions

Dean,
On the VFP Menu select Tools -> Options... -> Forms Tab -> Maximum design
area - set to higher than 640x480. Don't forget to click on the Set as
Default, or you'll have to set it again the next time you start up VFP.
