Does anyone know how to change the font for the Office2K Help files? Mine are very small (almost 1 pixel characters) and really hard to read. I searched (almost) everywhere for an option to change the font, but to no avail.
I'm going blind trying to read my help files (which I do a lot of lately).
 
The fonts in Office 2000 are linked with the font sizes of your Internet Explorer (for some reason).

As such, you cannot make the text in Help topics smaller than the default size. Use this procedure to make the text larger in Help topics.

In your Web browser, set the text size you want for Web pages.

On the toolbar in the Help window, click Options , and then click Internet Options.

On the General tab, click Accessibility.

Select the Ignore font sizes specified on Web pages check box, and then click OK.

Hope the eyesight improves as a result! :)

 
Oh, thank you Hasit...my eyes are uncrossed again and the headache went away! I might never have found that fix...you are a genius!
