Text Box in Frame Not Working When Program is Distributed

[Atliens911]

I have a text box that is inside a frame and it looks fine on the developer computer but when I packaged it and put it on other computers it is TOO BIG. I checked and it seems to be inside the frame b/c when I click on the frame the text box moves with the frame. Any suggestions?

Can you do something like this .....

in your form load event

text1.height = (frame1.height - 200)
text1.width = (frame1.width - 200)

Can you locate and post the relevant bits of code from the .frm file? It seems rather odd that the TextBox should suddenly start changing size. Does it get bigger than the containing Frame?

It'll get bigger if the user has selected, say, Large Fonts and you designed for Small Fonts
