I am still in love with my old Word because of the flexiability to
change to ANY font size.

How do you change to a font size that is not displayed in MS Word
2003?

Type the size you want into the toolbar box (1 to 1638 points, in 0.5
point
increments) and press Enter. (The Enter part was added somewhere around
Word
2000.)
