Default Word 2007 document view stretched with new wide screen monitor

I have a new Dell computer with a 21.5" W Full HD monitor. It stretches the
view. How can I get my docs to be in normal view or in scale. This is also
happening with other software (photoshop, etc.) which I have had to purchase
the latest versions to be able to correct. Any ideas? Someone offered a macro
to correct it, but that is all new to me. Not certain how to even start.
Suggested macro below:

Sub Makro1()
With ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.Zoom
.PageFit = wdPageFitFullPage
.Percentage = 25
.PageFit = wdPageFitNone
End With
End Sub

I am not sure if that macro will do it, but to see how to make use of it,
see the following page of fellow MVP Graham Mayor's website:

What you probably need to do however is change the screen resolution of the
monitor. There should be a Dell forum/website from which you can get
assistance.

Hope this helps.
