Default visual size

It sounds like your display settings are inappropriate - right click the
screen and select properties. You will find options there to reduce the
resolution and/or increase the displayed font size via the 'settings' tab.

I am working with Word 97. I have just transfered everything to a new
computer. All went well untill I tried to use Word. It functions OK
with some little quirks but my problem is this:

The program opes properly... I can open a previously saved doc. .....
it opens a 100% but it only takes up about half of the space on the
screen. I increase the size of the document to 150% and it looks
just fine... as it was at 100% on my old computer... fills the whole
screen.
Also, when I go to open a file the box opens and lists all of the file
folders the problem is the print is extremely small. I have dabbled
with the font size for the desk top but (not when word is open) and
obviously it has no impact on Word.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
