Sounds to me like you need to go into CONTROL PANEL and set the
granularity of the sizing grid. The following is from the Windows 3.0
manual page 157:

	"1. Choose the Desktop icon from the Control Panel window.
	 2. Move to the Granularity text box in the lower-right
	    portion of the of the dialog box.
	 3. Click the Up or Down scroll arrow to the right of the text
	    box to increase or decrease the size of the grid. Or type
	    the number you want.
	    The allowed range is 0 through 49.  The grid ganges in
	    multiples of eight pixels.  A value of 1 creates a grid
	    with magnetic spots every eight pixels, 2 places magnetic	
    	    spots every 16 pixels, and so forth. ...... A value of 0
	    cancels the grid.
	 4. Choose OK."
