I wrote a program in Win98, I have noticed that if I run the same program on a WinNT or Win2k operating system at the same screen resolution. Some of the labels appear to be chopped off. For example, A label whos caption is "Config" on Win 98 reads right. But on Win2k at the exact same screen resolution the label will read "Conf", totally excluding the "ig". The forms are justified and in their correct locations with cross operating systems. Its just a few of the labels that seem to get chopped off??? Any ideas?? This one is driving me batty.

Thanks in Advance,

Are the same fonts installed? If one the font isn't available, a substitution is made. Is it possible that your label is being chopped off for this reason?

Might very well be it!! Thanks for the idea, I'll check and get back on the results.
