Change font size with control/mouse wheel stopped working in OE 6

[Guest]

I have IE 7 & Outlook Express 6. I've always been able to change the font
size at will with control & rolling my mouse wheel. It still works with IE,
but for reasons beyond my comprehension, it stopped working in OE. I can
change the font size within an email account through options, & I can change
the font in an individual email through view. But the wheel was very
convenient, & it bothers me that it just stopped working. Rebooting didn't
help. Can anyone explain this or offer suggestions to fix the problem? Thank
you.

In OE, what happens if you hold down the ctrl key and roll the wheel?

An update. I used system restore to roll back before I installed IE 7 and the
function worked again. When I reinstalled IE 7, it stopped again. So IE 7
appears to conflict with the control/wheel font size change in OE. Ah well...

You might want to look through the messages in the internet explorer
newsgroup which is where IE7 issues should be posted. Someone may have
encountered this and found a solution. Also check the OE newsgroups.

Thank you for the links-- I'll check into it. I remember when Microsoft
released Windows XP SP 2-- it conflicted with all sorts of things. I
appreciate your input.
