Form displaced in japanese Windows XP

Hello,

I have a C# (.Net 1.1) application.
The main Form looks fine on my english and german Windows XP (SP2).
It also looks fine on these systems with japanese fonts installed.
But if I start my application on a real japanese Windows XP then everything
in the form is misplaced.
The horizontal sizes and locations are correct, but the vertical are all
wrong. Even in the visual studio designer and of cource while the
application is running.

Any idea why this is?
Thanks.

I solved it.
I changed the Font of the MAIN Form from "ms sans serif" to arial and now it
works on every platform.

bye bembi
