How to increase font size on monitor RBM 04-05-2008

 I'm using QB 2001 and just got a new 22 inch monitor. Typically when I'm
creating invoices, the font is smaller than I'd prefer on the monitor, but
it prints out fine on the invoice. With the new monitor, I can barely make
out the words, and I don't want to lower the resolution to increase their
size. I went into the layout designer and increased the size of the fonts,
but that only increases their printable size, not the viewing size. Is there
a way to increase the viewing size of the font?

Thanks for any assistance, rbm

No. Anything viewed on the screen is controlled by the windows settings. You
will need to either lower your resolution or select large DPI under Advanced
display options.

Thanks Laura, the DPI worked just fine
