How'd you know I'm a Mozilla fan? I did the best thing- waited till 9:00 and
walked a block to a store that sells reading glasses. Great tips.

Thanks
Creighton

Here's tip: if u read your mail in the Mozilla browser, hit CTRL and the
"plus" sign (+) that enlarges the font. If it's IE, choose the "view"
pull-down menu and choose "text Size" and select "larger".

Or, if you need all of windows to display larger fonts, try resetting
Windows itself to "large fonts". To do so, right click on the desktop,
choose properties then choose the appearance tab, then in the "Font Size"
requester, choose "large fonts". Though this can make screen layout look
a bit weird, it should allow you to get through the day till u can bring
your glasses the next day. :)

Of course, if u just want to magnify a few areas to read better, hit
START/PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/ACCESABILITY and choose "magnifier" to open a
neat little window that enlarges whatever your mouse is hovering over.

Lots of tips like this here:

PS: I'm assuming you're using windows and/or mozilla.. ;) Also, FWIW, I
did some work for a school district and we had to do this for the
visually impaired students so I researched it a long while back.
