If the problem is re-occurring, then try adding the following two lines to
both an autonew and an autoopen macro. It will switch to 500% then
immediately back to 100% for each document you open or create. If you
normally use a different zoom from 100% then change the figure in the second
line.
ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.Zoom.Percentage = 500
ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.Zoom.Percentage = 100

I did the 500% zoom and back and it worked. It looks like I will
have to do the zoom thing in each document that has his problem.
No, I haven't installed Service Pack 2 yet. I have no idea what made
this change. It was fine when I shut down last night and was shrunk
today when I went back to work.

Try changing the zoom to 500% and back to 100%.
We've suddenly had a bunch of questions about this -- clearly
something odd is going on. Can you take a guess at what changed on
your system recently? Did you install Windows XP Service Pack 2?
