I want to increase the size of the main log as it appears on the screen. I unlocked and dragged it to the new size I want, but when I re-lock it, the log reverts back to a default size. I am able to resize other items on the screen, ie: spot log, other qso's, telet etc.
Thanks
Kevin

When you lock a LOG form , it's size seems to snap back to only as wide as it needs to be for the fields. Most form field widths are set to automatic (right-click on the field). The Comment field is not on mine. Unlock the form and set that field to a much larger value. When you re-lock the form, it will snap to that (at least) fit that new width. Note that the Comment field in the database is 254 characters! I presume this behavior is by design.

Thanks Don. You are correct.
Forms that have a browse window such as the Log browse form or the spot log do allow setting the seize of the overall window. Data entry forms such as the Log form allow you to expand so as to have a larger workarea to add more fields. But it automatically adjusts to the proper size to display all fields but no larger. There is no point in having large unused areas on the log data form.
BTW, you can increase the font size for the log form, and that will make it bigger. But it will still snap to the minimum necessary size.
Tnx & 73,
Dennis WN4AZY
