    Question Display of listbox in forms for Chinese users

    We have a program that displays a listbox with about 5 columns in a form. It displays correctly for all users except for Chinese users. Is that because of the different fonts? Is there one specific font that we should use for the listbox? Also, we are setting the column widths in cm. Is that ok for these users?

    No, I do not. I don't know what the Chinese users have. The problem is is that it looks fine on mine and for other users, but for users such as the Chinese, many of the columns in the listbox in the form are truncated when displayed.
