How do I increase the help file type size?

Is anyone else having a problem with the type size of help files? Mine is so
small I can hardly read them. Can this be fixed?

Assuming you are talking about Office 2007... Look at the top of the Help
screen. Do you see the big A/little A? Click on that. I assume yours is set
for Medium. Select Larger or Largest.

Hi JoAnn

I probably have not given enough info on this, sorry.
I am talking about Office 2003.
In all applications if I click on Help/Microsoft **** Help the relevant help
panel appears at the right hand side, this is no problem. I then type in a
question and click the green arrow and the results of my search appear. It
when I select a result that another window then opens with this incredibly
small type size.

The Word 2003 help files are displayed by Internet Explorer. In IE you can set View=>Text size or in the Word help files, click on
a help page, hold the ctrl key and turn the mouse wheel towards you.
