width of dbgrid varies on different monitors

Hi,
I designed the columns of a dbgrid to fit exactly within the width of the
dbgrid (so there won't be any horisontal scrollbar). When installing the app
on my client's computer, the columns are too wide for the grid, and the
horisontal scrollbar is visible. How can I ensure that the total with of the
columns will fit the grid (on different monitors)?

Thanks a lot for any suggestrions,
Tove

Go to the properties of the Form this grid is on and set Scaled to False.
This is the first thing I do in any form I create.
