Lack of Zoom

[glwoolley]

Spending hours developing or doing data entry in Access is causing neck
strain. All other Office products have a zoom feature. With Access I spend
a lot of time leaning toward the monitor. I am working on a laptop so
changing the screen resolution makes it bigger but blurry.

I am having the same problem using web based databases.

A couple of suggestions:

If you are the designer of the Access databases, you can change the font
size of controls when you are designing your forms/reports, etc. If you set
the font size for a control when there is no selected control of that type,
this will become the default size for that type of control.

You can almost certainly change the display setting to give larger type.
Right-click on the desktop, select Settings, and in the Advanced section
change from 96 dpi (the normal setting) to 120 dpi (large), or some other
custom setting.

HTH,
