I'm developing an application on a Macbook air that will run mostly on PCs. I have two questions:
1. I need to write a routine which scales the UserForm for screen resolution, as most of the PC users I work with use a lower screen resolution than what I use on my Mac. I've seen sample code which interrogates the system for screen resolution. Trouble is, I don't know in which modules to put the various parts of the user code I see listed on various forums (i.e. variable declarations, subroutines, functions). Big picture, I think that with the current (user) screen resolution and the base resolution of my screen when I set up the UserForm, I can change the zoom factor of the UserForm and then change the width and height of the UserForm by the same percentage. Any specific code recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Please be specific as to where to put the various portions of the code.
2. The colors of the UserForm I developed on my Mac are great. When I run the same code on a PC, several of the colors are terrible. In particular, the background color on the UserForm itself as well as the color of the command buttons are terrible. What code can I put in the UserForm, probably in the initialize subroutine, to change the color scheme to something appropriate for each user? This code needs to work on both a PC and a Mac.
Thanks in advance for any help!
