I am using OE 6 under Win XP Professional.
After changing to a new monitor screen, I had to reset the resolution
(now1280 x 1024 pixels). Afterwards, the text size, for me, was too
small to read, so I made adaptations in Win XP (right-clicking on the
desktop - properties - appearance - advanced - message box - size etc.)
(DPI set to 120).
And, in OE, I also made adaptations (tools - options - compose etc.)
Still, I can't get it right.
The text in the mails is now OK, but - for example - when I want to
forward a message, the text in the box 'select recipients' is way too
small (unreadable for me).
What am I doing wrong?
TIA
Roger.

Right click a blank spot on the desktop and choose Properties | Appearance.
In the Item drop-down box (you may have to click Advanced to see it) choose
Icon. Change the font or size and click Apply.

That's one of the things I tried.
As said: with me, apparently, it doesn't change the size of the text in
the box 'select recipients' (see above)
