    Help screen font in Access 2003

    This question is so dumb that I'm embarrassed to ask it, but I've
    searched and googled and can't find the answer. I am making the
    switch from Access 2000 to Access 2003. In A2K3, the font is so small
    on the help screens that I can barely read it. How can I change the
    help screen font size?

    Just hold down the Ctrl key and then use the mouse scroll
    wheel.

      Perhaps the question wasn't as dumb as I thought? I figured, for
      sure, there had to be a way to change that font size.

        Did you have a problem using Ctrl+Scroll wheel?

        I would hope there's another way, but I don't what it might
        be.

          The Ctrl+Scroll wheel doesn't do anything on my system. That works in
          Internet Explorer but not in the Access help. Does it change the
          font size in help on yours?

            Yes, it works on my system (WinXP, IE6 and Access2003)
