From a Mac user (not sure how similiar this is to a Windows version), go to "Preferences", under "Explorer" in the menu bar at the top of the page, click on "Language/Fonts"
change size to the next number that is larger, click "OK" and see if that corrects your problem, if not do it again until it is large enough for you.

Ray,

Hold your Ctrl key down on your PC while rotating your thumbwheel on your mouse. If you do not have a thumbwheel, follow this

a place I worked at many years ago had an official warehouse cat....at night it would jump up on the dispatch desk and sleep....several times it stepped on the phone and hit the auto dial for 911....took several times to figure out how the calls were being made...they ended up having to put a large box over the phone at night...

At the top of the page you will see: View. Click and go down to: Text Size. That should do it.

What a great site! Mr. Pena ... how simple was THAT ... voila! <~French for "cool beans" (not really, but could be) Musta been how it got changed, her on the CTL key and me 'wheeling' a page. Pumpkin, looked at your way too ... now I know two ways to change the font.

Thank you both, and to TUIB for making sure my desk phone does NOT have 911 (or any 1-900's for that matter) pre-programmed into it!!

Dan that is fabulous. Whenever the txt size changed it was off to the help files. Could be a new column, Dans' "way too simple things everyone should know about their computer!"
