Hi all, is there any way I can allow a user of a
replicated version to zoom their view. Specifically, I
use a replicated version on my laptop which is set at a
differnt resolution that my desktop. Everything is tiny.

I would like to put a button on the form so I can toggle
the view from 100% to 140% and back.

Is there code for the view zoom?

Thanks...Jim
 
Jim,

Access doesn't have any form "zoom" capability built-in. There are
third-party form scaling solutions available that might help:

A shareware version of a form rescaling module I wrote called
ShrinkerStretcher is available at this web site:

FMS has a sizer module at www.fmsinc.com.

The Access Developer's Handbook has form resizing code included:

For more informmation, there are some great articles about form scaling in
the December 2000, and May 2001 SmartAccess newsletter. Check it out here:

Hope this helps,
