Hel Paul,

Well, today i went to deliver an application to an important bussiness.

Everything went fine except for a small detail; MonthCalendar control.

It only displayed the columns from Sunday to Friday, the last column,
Saturday was not visible.

I specified a font and font size, so, why the font is bigger in the PC
where I installed the app?

What font did you specify? Maybe the font is not available on the PC that you are installing to and Windows is then substituting a different font for it. Try using a common font like MS Sans Serif, Times New Roman or Arial.

Check out "Display Properties" on the "Appearance" and "Settings" tabs.  Look for the "Advanced" buttons.

hmmm, yeah, could be Large Fonts vs. Small Fonts.

  I will go to the bussiness next monday, and let you guys know what happened. :)

 Weird. I still cant find what it is. The fonts are available.
And the font size configuration is the same as here; 100%.

Ill keep investigating. For the moment i just made the control
a bit bigger. :)

Border size and other things might effect it too.  Might look at those and icon spacing settings and such...I think that control uses some appearance settings.  Might play with each to see what changes it.
