All words don't fit in window in training session

I have modified the display properties (DPI setting) in my Win XP Pro
system to be larger than normal to make it easier on my aging eyes. There
are several places that this prodeces annoyances, but none as irritating as
trying to read a training session and not being able to see some of the
words.
As I am a programmer myself, I am sure that this has an easy fix
(involving applying word wrap), and one I hope yo implement in future
versions of the product.

You didn't mention what training you're looking at (CD based, local install, browser, sample page URL, etc.) so not easy to offer
any hopefully useful suggestions at this point. :)

the I apologize profusely! Specifically, this particular instance of the
annoyance came while going through the training phase for the speech
recognition facility of MS Office. If I do more training, I will alter my
display properties so I can see all words; I just don't feel that I should
have to do that.

P.S. My size setting is not a common one. The compromise that fits best for
me is to set the DPI size to 113% (108 dpi).

Unfortunately, Windows is extremely bad at handling any DPI size other
than the standard ones. The problem isn't restricted to any particular
software. It's particularly noticeable in Office 2000 and Office 2003,
where tabs in some boxes may not be visible at all.
