THE MENU CURRENTLY SHOWS 3 COLUMNS. I CAN ONLY READ THE FIRST 1" OF COLUMN 3. COLUMNS 1 & 2 HAVE PLENTY OF ROOM IN THEM TO PERMIT REDUCING THEIR SIZE. I CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO REDUCE THEIR SIZE SO I CAN READ WHAT'S LISTED IN COLUMN 3. MOVING THE CURSOR TO THE END OF THE COLUMNS, WAITING FOR IT TO CHANGE TO ARROWS, THEN DRAGGING, _DOES NOT WORK_. THE CURSOR DOESN'T CHANGE. PS: I'M USING WINDOWS XP HOME. I'VE TRIED ADJUSTING SCREEN RESOLUTION, IT TOO DOESN'T HELP. I'M STUCK AND, THIS IS BECOMING A MAJOR PROBLEM. P-L-E-A-S-E H-E-L-P !

The other option is to right click on the list column
headers and select "columns" and set each column with
numbers. Also, your screen resolution may need to be
adjusted to show a bigger screen.

If you post in all caps I will not reply to your next
question.

quit shouting - turn OFF the caps.

Now your problem, right click on the longest name in the start menu » click on rename » make the name shorter. For example "Stamp Collector's Data Base for Windows" became "SCDB for Windows" that change reduced my column with by 23 characters. Column width defaults to fit the longest name in the list.
