scrren size problem in converting from 2.5DOS to 2.6fpw

[Guest_imported]

Am trying to convert an application from 2.5 for DOS to 2.6 FPW to run in Windows 95. It does what it's supposed to do but the screen is all scrunched up and the font and input fields are tiny. When running 2.5DOS from the DOS prompt and clicking "run in full screen" it looks just like it did in pure DOS but under 2.6FPW I get this problem. Since it's not a DOS platform anymore how can I get it to have the same screen attributes? The only reason I'm doing the conversion is so I can network the application.
Thanks
Moe

First, any and all versions of FPD & FPW 2.5/2.6 have equivalent networking (multi-user?) capabilities, so there is no need to convert for this reason.

If your 2.5 DOS application used the standard tools to build Screens, Menus and Reports, then opening them in FPW will give you the opportunity to convert them to the new platform. Then you'll just need to make some changes (a few to many) to the visual appearance depending on your esthetic sensibilities.

If your 2.5 DOS code is all program code, then you've got a much more difficult and tedious job.
