form scaling

Hi,

It seems vs.net does some automatic scaling in the ide. like if i take a project develloped under 96 dpi low res and load it under 120 dpi hi res it does all kinds of automatic resizing. this is undesirable, how do you turn it off?
I have a function that scales forms on the fly (form param). but now i realize that changing the dpi messes up the scaling. i need to take the dpi into consideration but the formulas i've tried don't scale with good precision. so what would be the best scaling formula taking screen width, height and dpi?

TIA
