OS/2 2.0 PM problem....help needed!

I need help in determining a PM problem. When I tried running an
OS/2 1.3 PM application on OS/2 2.0, my PM entry fields shrunk down
vertically, where I can't read the text (which has a default system
font), since I can only see the bottom half of the text. The other
thing is that the window title bar which has some text in it, got
chopped off like the following:

[original text in 
title bar]: 			Hello there today's date is 11/23/92

[resultant text in title
bar under OS/2 2.0]:		Hello there today's da

I opened my resourc.res file using the toolkit 2.0 Dialog Box Editor,
and the entry fields looked normal (you can see what you type under
test mode), it is only when I start my application. 

I guess, I could cheat by changing the font to something which fits
within the shown entry fields but that is not acceptable because, I
need the normal entry field sizes, so I could use the default fonts and be
able to read them.

If anybody out there had seen such a problem, or has
any solutions/suggestions, then please e-mail any of the following
addresses: 
	tma@po.cwru.edu
	alrashid@pyrite.som.cwru.edu
	tma@skybridge.scl.cwru.edu

Thanks much,
TAREQ
