Helpfile Font size too tiny to read

A

Admin

On my WinXp Pro SP1, I have Office 2003 Pro installed.

If I look up Help for it, the detail of every topic appears in a
window that does NOT have any way to change the font or the size of it
and the native display has very tiny font and on top of that the
individual letters appears to be running into each other making it
impossible to read it.

How can I fix this?

Thanks

Matt

Oops. :) That's a very interesting bug.

Try this:

Click into the help window. Hold down the Control Key. Scroll your
mouse-wheel downward. The text size should adjust.

If that doesn't work:

Close Help.
Start Internet Explorer.
Click the menu View | Text Size | Medium.
Close IE
Click a help topic.
