Monitor Sizes

102 64KB
Front end: MS Access 2010 / VBA
Back end: MS SQL Server 2008

I have an application that runs on a 15" laptop. When the application runs on a 23" widescreen monitor,
it does not proportion itself to utilize the full monitor. How can I make this happen in Access?

This is a very complicated and complex process, as MS Access must cycle through all the controls on the form and resize them based on the monitor size.

It can be done, and I've seen some examples out there. You can search for MS Access form scaling, which may produce some results for you.
