form too big, or window too small, in xp

Think this is about pixels-per-inch on their monitor? Newer code accommodates
this for window size routines.

Hi Peter,

Have come across this problem before.  It happens when the user selects 
"large fonts" or "extra large fonts" in windows.   Look at
the display 
properties under appearance, select the "normal" font size and this 
adjustment fixed the issues for my clients.

Thank you. I found it in Properties in the Advanced tab, where it specified
DPI.
