Team,I found the screen resolution is different between PC's.
My pc has resolution 1600 * 900.
Desination Pc has only 1366 * 768.
Is there any solutions or suggestions for this issue?

Here you have 3 possibilities :
1st: you define a resolution which should be used
2nd: you look which is the smallest resolution on each/any destination-PC and create your application for this resolution
3rd: you enhance your application that it is able to fit itself to any resolution (which makes sense). In this case you have to re-calculate the location and the size (and perhaps also the Fontsize) of each control on your font.

My PC in windows 10 64 bit version.
Destination is also the same.

Thanks Ralf Meier Finally Your idea Runs Perfectly.
But Now I am Concentrating on forms to fit in any resolution. That's the Final Solutions.

Solution 1

Check the Display Settings > Text Scaling of your system and the other system. Catches a lot of people out.
