This is a cross-post, sorry. I really need some guidence here:

When developing with VS 2005 on Vista with the VS 2005 patch for Vista:

I have a UserControl that I have designed with child controls (text boxes, buttons, etc...). More then one user control actually has this problem. When I am laying out the controls in the designer, everything looks fine. But when I drop an instance of the user control onto a TabContol, the child controls in my user control are too big and end up being clipped by the right-hand-side of the user control.

Now for the wierd part, when I install the application (un-changed) on an XP or Server 2003 machine, the child controls look fine!

What could be going on?

Thanks.

Kenneth.

The problem is DPI most likely, not Vista.

It's a pain, and there's no fabulous workaround.
