    Default Help required please, MS office outlook prob

    Hi there i'm just wondering why i cant see all my options in Outlook, its hard to explain but i will try.
    If i go to options in outlook this is what i can see. (I have included a snap shot to help explain)
    The option box comes up with 5 tabs along the top.
    if im in the first tab "preferences" i can see' E-Mail then an envelope and a junk Mail tab and about 5mm of the tab next to it, that is the same all the way down the options box.
    When you get to the bottom i can see "Mobile" Change the settings for mobile notification and messagi, the it is all hidden by the options border.
    Any help would be great.
    ok here is a snap shot


    Thanks for your help
    Gavogr

    Looks like the wrong XP font... normally it is Tahoma 8.. either it has been changed or your Tahoma font is stuffed.

    # Right click in an empty place on the desktop and select Properties
    # Under Appearance, if you have a scheme remember it so you can reset your display if you like.
    # Choose the Advanced button
    # Under Item Select Message Box. Then change the font to Tahoma 8

    Open control panel and fonts and check out the Tahoma fonts are there and double click to check it opens OK. Bet it isn't there. If you have another PC copy it from there.

    Just followed your very helpful instructions,
    Clicked on the Tahoma font in control panel it opened,
    went back to advanced tab and there it was!
    changed the icon to Tahoma 8pt and fixed.
    Cheers

    I really didn't expect that to actually fix anything and you would have had to do more. More arse than actual knowledge fixed this one....
