Joe, Changing the resolution on an LCD monitor isn't optimum, but it isn't bad either. If this user can't see your forms, then perhaps everything is too small? My laptop has an optimum resolution of 1200 X 1600, but I change it to 1024 X 768 for presentations. Beforehand I explain about the 'fuzziness' and everyone is OK after that. If you go to Display Properties - Settings Tab - Advanced button, there is an option to increase the font size from normal (96 dpi) to larger (120 dpi). This increases the font size while maintaining the screen resolution. It helps me a lot because my screen is 1600 X 1200 on a 15" screen.

As those of you familiar with LCDs know, they are designed to have an optimum resolution. Well, at this optimum resolution, this user has a hard time reading the text on the forms in my Access database. Is there away to zoom or expanded a form and all of its contents so that she can read the form easier? I don't want to make this change for everyone, but if there was some way to allow users to specify their preference for this one access database, that would be great. Any ideas?
