>Dear Craig,
>I suppose you are right - users need to set this. However, there are many users who use computers only to use specific software. They do not have any idea how to do things like change the font size of menu. Microsoft seems to be under the impression that all computer users have at minimum 20/20 vision given the fact that the standard font size in Windows give even fighter pilots trouble. I want to make this an option on the menu so that I do not have to answer several hundered users questions about how to make the font that they cannot see bigger. <bg>.

Having done commercial and custom applications for many years, this option isn't going to help. You'll start getting questions like "How can I change the font in application XYZ" or "You can change the menu font in your program, why can't you do it in application XYZ". Save yourself lots of support headaches and ship a copy of Windows for Dummies with you app.
