winforms on win98 problems

Hi,

I am having a problem with forms rendering differently on a windows 98
machine (It is Taiwanese aswell but hopefully that's not an issue).
The form's height is larger than I expect, but most importantly the two most
important buttons on the first tab page aren't there!

is there anything to look out for/try (the buttons are both anchored
bottom,right) ?

regards,

Richard

Does one of the systems have "large fonts" setting applied?

Have you tried to run your project on a computer other than the one that you
have mentioned? Maybe it could be an issue that is affected only that
system.

Herfried,.

I used the code at
http://www.google.de/groups?selm=brn....uni-berlin.de
(yours) to detect whether either the development machine or the test machine
were running small fonts. They both are running small fonts (96).

regards,

Richard
