But, I am trying to inform my boss that he can't keep taking on more and More - and hope to get ALL these things done - w/only 2 programmers! By the way - for anyone else who is reading this and wants to comment. I actually modified the VFP Genmenu program - to update Fonts/Sizing on the menu when it gets generated. I got it to work for the Drop Downs (the Define BAR commands) - and its now properly scaled up larger. But, on the main top menu (implemented via the Define PAD commands) - the Font command is in there - BUT - it has NO Effect on the system when it actually runs! Anyone have any thoughts on this???

Then neither is tweaking every screen you currently have to act properly in a fluid environment.
