Default DPI scaling

I use Access 2003 at home and work. My home PC used to give me fits
with images on Access forms. Whenever I opened a form in design mode
and then saved it the images on the form would "blow up" in size and
become distorted. Also, images that were centered on a form would
appear shifted to the left.

This went on for a long time until recently I noticed that my home
PC's video setting was at 120 DPI and that my work PC was 96 DPI. It
seemed to me that this was the only difference so I changed my home PC
to 96 DPI. This resolved the problem of images becoming distorted!

Has anyone else experienced this? What DPI settings do you use?

I'd like to find a way to resolve this without changing my DPI
setting. I mean, I have a NICE little LCD monitor and it's seems a
shame to have to reduce it from a superior DPI setting!
