How to Re-size Word pages on the screen?

[June]

I wrote in earlier today and now I cannot find my question posted. So here
goes again.

While I was away, my son used my computer. Today, Everything I open takes
up the entire screen: Internet, Outlook Express e-mail and Word documents.
I tried restoring the computer to an eariler date and increasing the
resolution-- to no avail.

I tried Zoom, but on the Interent pages, it merely decreases the size of the
font, with the page still covering the entire screen. I can't even use the
bar at the bottom of the screen to move pages side to side.

One more problem: Word docs, not only take up the entire screen but they
all open to the left of center. I tried moving the ruler across the top of
the page, but it doesn't hold and, of course, the centering button. I would
most appreciate any help you folks can give.

Check the following settings:

1. Right-click on an empty area of your Desktop and choose Properties
2. Click Settings tab and then click Advanced button.
3. Under General tab check DPI settings and if it is set to Large or Custom
size then change it back to Normal (96 DPI).
4. Apply the changes and may require a windows restart.

If that doesn't help then can you post a Screen Shot of your Windows.

Hope this help, let us know!

Do you have the toolbars across the top of the pages?
If someone has hit F11, that will do what you describe.
Hit F11 to see if it goes back to normal size.
