As you may recall, a couple days ago, I ran a tip in the newsletter about changing the font size in Windows Vista (you can read that tip here). Well, ever since, several of you have been asking if there's a way to do the same thing in Windows XP. I wasn't sure off the top of my head, but I figured there had to be, so I made a note to myself to check on it. But before I had a chance to look, one of our loyal readers e-mailed me with the answer. So, today's quick tip is coming to you thanks to Mr. Dick Furst. Let's check it out!

If you want to increase (or even decrease) the size of the objects on your computer, in Windows XP, go to Start, Control Panel (make sure you're in the classic view) and double click on the Display icon. Next, click on the Settings tab and then hit the Advanced button. Under the General tab, you can select which DPI setting you prefer. You can choose from Normal size, Large size or you can even make a Custom size just for you.

Once you choose your setting, you will be prompted to restart your computer. When it boots back up, you will be able to notice the size difference of the objects on your computer. Now, if you also want no prescription propecia to change your font size, go back to Start, Control Panel and click on the Display icon again. From there, click on the Appearance tab and then use the Font size drop down box to choose between Normal, Large or Extra Large. Then just hit OK and you'll be all set. Your XP computer is now set up just the way you want it. Yes!

Outlook 2003’s Quick Flags feature is a handy tool — if you can develop a logical system for using it. One solution: A custom toolbar that makes it easy to flag and organize messages.

Quick Flags help you categorize your messages, usually by some level of importance or by task. For instance, you might use a red flag to mark messages that need a quick response and a blue flag to mark messages on which you’ve acted and are waiting for a response.The problem with Quick Flags is that there’s no way to customize their descriptions. Outlook identifies them only by color. You can’t change the name of Red Flag to Critical. Remembering what each color represents can become burdensome.

An easy way to remember what each flag represents is to create a custom toolbar that displays each flag with text that means something to you. Fortunately, the process is easy:

Figure A

1. Name the new toolbar appropriately — for instance, you might name it Flags, as shown in Figure B — and click OK.

1. Scroll down through the Commands list box to find the flag entries. Then, drag the appropriate flag color buttons onto your custom toolbar. (If you can’t find the toolbar, look behind the dialog box.)
2. After adding all the flags you want, change the text for each flag button. Right-click a flag button on the toolbar and replace the Name setting, e.g., &Red Flag (Figure D), with something more helpful, such as Critical. Select the Image And Text option so that Outlook will display the button’s name on the toolbar (Figure E).

The first example below shows a typical landscape photo:

How boring! To add some pizzazz to your landscape photos, here are five things you can do:

1.) Get Down – So many good landscape shots miss the chance of being great, simply because you lift the camera to your face and shoot.

4.) Seek Contrast – Include strong elements of light and shadow to achieve a more stunning lowest price for propecia effect.

5.) Frame – Look for opportunities to frame your landscape photos in dramatic ways, such as breaks in the foliage or open portals like glassless windows and open doors.

Following these five rules will give you some of the best landscape photos you've ever taken. Happy shooting!

The offline folder file has an .ost extension. You can create it automatically when you set up Outlook or when you first make a folder available offline.), or you suspect that your .pst or .ost data file is corrupt, you can use the Inbox Repair tool (Scanpst.exe), to diagnose and repair errors in the file.

1. Quit Microsoft Outlook if it's running.

2. Double-click Scanpst.exe, located at drive:\Program Files\Common Files\System\MSMAPI\LocaleID folder – where LocaleID is the locale identifier (LCID) for the installation of Microsoft Office. The LCID for English – United States is 1033.

6. When the scanning is completed, and if errors were found, you will be prompted to start the repair process.
   To change the name or location of the backup file created during the repair process, in the Enter name of backup file box, enter a new name, or click Browse to look for the file.

   In the Folder List, you may see a Recovered Personal Folders folder containing default Outlook folders or a Lost and Found folder. The recovered folders are usually empty, because this is a rebuilt .pst file. The Lost and Found folder contains folders and items that the Inbox Repair tool recovered. Items that are missing from the Lost and Found folder cannot be repaired.

Notes

• If you are able to open the original .pst file, you may be able to recover additional items from your damaged .pst file. By default, the Inbox Repair tool creates a file called file name .bak, which is a copy of the original .pst file with a different extension. The .bak file is located in the same folder as your original .pst file. You may be able to recover items from the .bak file that the Inbox Repair tool could not recover. Make a copy of the .bak file, giving the file a new name with a .pst extension. Import the "bak.pst" file, and then move any additional recovered items to the new .pst file that you created.

• A copy of the log file is written to the same location as the .pst file.
