Excel buttons display differently on different PC's
We built a Excel VBA application. We noticed however, that a command button displays diferently from one PC to another PC with the exact same Excel version. The problem is that the text on the Button is cutoff on one Pc; but displays in its enitety on another PC. BTW-- the two PC's in question have 17" monitors, both using Excel 2000. What is the solution so that the button name text displays in its entirety on all PC's? -- PaulFCPS ------------------------------------------------------------------------ PaulFCPS's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=31897 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=516258 |

I don't know about the button itself being cut off part, but part of the
question might be referring to tool tips that don't show up until you pass the mouse over the button. Tools, Customize, options, show tool tips you can right click on the tool bar instead of using Tools, Customize If the buttons are cut off, I wouldn't have an answer but I would certainly for starters check the system Display settings in the control panel for screen resolution to see if they are the same. --- HTH, David McRitchie, Microsoft MVP - Excel [site changed Nov. 2001] My Excel Pages: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/excel.htm Search Page: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/search.htm "PaulFCPS" wrote in message ...

Its the actual "Text" that is cutoff inside the button when viewing th same button on different PC's. Should I look at font settings as well -- PaulFCP ----------------------------------------------------------------------- PaulFCPS's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...fo&userid=3189 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread.php?threadid=51625 |

Hi Paul,
Sounds like a good idea, if the font does not exist another font would have to be chosen somewhere in the system. Right click on the button to see if that brings up properties -- probably right-click on the outside edge. Check to see that the font is in your font table and is scaleable. --- HTH, David McRitchie, Microsoft MVP - Excel [site changed Nov. 2001] My Excel Pages: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/excel.htm Search Page: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/search.htm "PaulFCPS" wrote in message ...
