I guess it has been some time since I needed to look at Help in Office 2003 VBA, or something strange has changed the fonts in VBA Help.

The characters are too small to read.

Is there a way to adjust the zize of the fonts used in VBA Help?

Hi Howard, how are you? :)

If you have a scroll wheel on your mouse, one way would be to hold the Ctrl key and scroll down on your wheel. It doesn't affect the Font, but zooms in some to simulate a font increase. Not quite what you're looking for, but a decent workaround.

Thanx, that did the deed, but confuses me even more.
Yes, I am easily confused.

I've been using Office 2003 for over a year, don't recall when I last used Help.

Using the wheel on the mouse does fix the problem, even after I restart the system.

The implication is that somehere a setting in VBA had been clobbered and is now reset.

It's not a hardware issue as the system is multiboot, with a different Office on each OS. I booted to the OS with Office XP and there was no problem in VBA Help BEFORE I used the mouse wheel trick.
