I have FOUR pgms I am using this way from different places and they all behave that way,

HOWEVER the fifth works great you can resize the window it is just perfect. But i did not dosbox that one. Some other guy did it and I just copied his screen stuff into my .conf file. But it did not help.

I run DOSbox in it's default configuration. I believe this is a standard 640x480 screen mode. When I do alt-enter, the entire dosbox windows scales up to fit my large monitor screen. This includes any graphics that are being displayed in the 640x480 window. Everything just appears a lot larger. I just tested it again on my Windows 8 machine with several graphics programs including an old version of Tetris. In all cases, it scales up to fit the large screen.

Not sure why this doesn't work for you.

Maybe this scaling doesn't work if the dosbox window is set for a larger screen mode. I've never tried setting a larger dosbox screen mode.
