My system is running Win XP Pro, Service Pack 2. In some programs with
certain dialog boxes or windows in those programs, the text is larger than it
should be and either overflows the right edge of the window or wraps
abnormally or runs into another control. Sometimes it pushes the OK or Cancel
buttons off the bottom of the window. The font is Arial or some equivalent,
not something exotic. It doesn't happen in programs like Word or Excel, but
one of the programs that this happens to is called Search and Replace by
Funduc Software. A year or two ago everything worked fine. I have no idea
what changed to make this happen.

Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks!
 
Hi Dan,

Check your settings via Display Properties/Appearance/Advanced.
You may also want to try resetting back to XP.
