Toolbar spacing
 
Until now I have been using the 800x600 resolution setting in XP Home
because of the size of the display items but since several photo editing
programs I use require a higher res I had to change my screen settings. I
now find the Address Book tab up in the toolbar is cut off to just a few
letters and while it is not a huge problem it annoys me. Increasing the size
of icons in the Display Properties has no effect in OE so is there anything
I can do to get the entire word Address to show. Thanks for any help.

Remove as many unneeded items from the toolbar as necessary.

As you can see in the screen shot I removed several tabs and there is plenty
of free space to the right but the Address tab is still very short.

Separate the Toolbar and the Views Bar. I believe that will fix it. Grab one
by the vertical line of dots at the left and drag it up or down. See my
screen shot.

It looks like Stan has larger, bold font.
Six letters seems to be the most that will fit.

Ron,
You hit the nail on the head! I changed the icon text size and bold settings
and various combinations allowed more or less letters to show. Now I can
settle for a happy medium. Thanks a million.
