   First, don't zoom the form. Why would you? If itis properly scaled for   
   800x600 just leave it there. (size the ap window to fit it and maximize   
   or just explicitly size the window. Don't try and take over the whole   
   screen regardless of resolution. If you really want to be nasty and take   
   over the whole screen then make a different copy of the form for each   
   res you may encounter, test the res on startup and pick that set of   
   forms. But it is FAR easier to just stick with one size and stay there.   
      
   Also, why use pages on the form? Use notebook tabs if you need to   
   separate data within a single form. Use pop up forms if you just want   
   another part of your data. Pages are a bad idea generally.   
      
   So, in summary, pick a size. Design for it. Forget zoom. It is lousy and   
   causes problems as you have seen. Get rid of pages. They are a pain. Use   
   notebooks or pop up forms. Don't resize. Don't change scale. Size the ap   
   explicitly and maximize your forms or size the forms explicitly. If you   
   want you can also disable resizing of the ap window or the form itslef   
   but that is more complicated. Usually easier just to tell users to leave   
   the forms the size they come up or deal with the lousy look. They will   
   stop changing sizes.
