Visual Studio85
I am troubleshooting a display problem for a VB.NET Windows application. It

was developed using VS 2003. It is installed and working beautifully on 5

Windows 2000 pro machines. It is installed and displaying incorrectly on a

6th Windows 2000 pro machine. All 6 have .NET framework 1.1.4322 installed,

and are up to date on windows updates.



I have posted striking screenshots that display the problem at:

thinkscript.net/screenshots.aspx



The application is Windows Forms, and uses a MDI parent and child forms.

The application seemed to be working fine until one user called me and sent

a screenshot showing the application screens completely ajar. Everything is

not lining up at all, and I would love it if anyone had some insight to this

problem. All comments appreciated. Please take a look at the screenshot

and let me know if you have any ideas. Thanks!

This is a VB "classic" newsgroup. Your chances of getting an answer to your

question are an order of magnitude greater in a group dedicated to .NET.



Please ask .NET questions in newsgroups with "dotnet" in their names. The

*.vb.* groups are for VB6 and earlier. If you don't see the *.dotnet.*

groups on your news server, connect directly to the Microsoft server:

msnews.microsoft.com.

Hehe ... you forgot to add that his chances of getting flamed over here were

orders of magnitude greater ...

Well.. if you ask me, the OP's first mistake was using the sentence

below to get people to look at who knows what. That "striking

screenshots" comment makes it look like a spammers attempt to get people

to look at their web site.



Nope.... not clicking that one. Sorry

IMO, that was not the OP's *first* mistake.

The first is still in these Subject headers - asserting the belief that his issue

was somehow more important than everyone else's, and deserving of extra attention.



A type of assertion which IMO backfires more often than it succeeds.
