Had to buy new computer, has VISTA, how do I get a full screen on my A4?

Alt + Enter does it in XP. That may work for you.

I've been able to increase the size by starting alpha4v7 and right click on the title line and changing the font to Lucinda Console and changing the font size to 28. I can then grab the corner of the screen and enlarge it even more. I've been looking at all the threads about "dos based" programs and xp and vista and found what Randy Stewart wrote back in 2002 and it was under "Window Size Control Under XP". It paid off for me. Give it a try. THANKS RANDY STEWART!!!!

Not meaning to be sarcastic, but with a new machine, maybe that's a good time to upgrade to V5. :)

[susie251]

Yes, it would be nice to upgrade, however, the machine I'm running Vista on belongs to me. The company I work for cannot
afford to spend any extra money to convert their programs over to Alpha5 or purchase new equipment. The operating system they have is Windows ME. Oh, and they are one of the suppliers of the auto industry and we are struggling to keep the doors open.

Thanks for the advice.:)

... struggling to keep the doors open.

I understand completely. I'm staring at my lay off notice from a closing facility right now.
