How to you enlarge the text in menus and window panes in Outlook 2007. For
example under "Mail Folders", how do you get the "Personal Folder", "Deleted
Items", "Drafts" text, etc. to be larger, so it is easyer to read and find.
I have poor vision. Just want to enlarge the overall view of things in this
program. I don't want to change my overall screen resolution in the Monitor
section of Control Pannel. Thank-you!

This worked for me with Outlook 2003.

Open Control Panel.
Go to Appearance and Themes.
Click Display.
Go to the Appearance tab.
Click Advanced.
Select Menu from the Item: drop-down menu.
Choose the desired Font:, Size: and attributes.
Click OK.

If that doesn't change everything you want larger, try the Icon: option from the Item: menu as well.

You might try... Tools - Customize - Toolbars tab; click on Menu Bar, then
click on Reset.
