Possible VB.Net bug when first form loads

[Ron Sellers]

I have built a VB.Net app that runs fine when the Windows
desktop resolution is set to normal (100%).

When the Display Properties>Settings>Advanced>Display>Font
Size is set to "Large Fonts" rather than "Small Fonts" I
get an error :

"An unhandled exception of
type 'System.NullReferenceException' occurred in Unknown
Module. Additional information: Object reference not set
to an instance of an object."

This error happens when the application loads in the
development environment (before the first form displays).

You will have to debug...
