Summary: Word includes the ability to display toolbar icons in two sizes: regular and large. You can turn on the large icons by using the Customize dialog box, as described in this tip. (This tip works with Microsoft Word 97, Word 2000, Word 2002, and Word 2003.)
Depending on the resolution on your monitor and your personal preferences, you can adjust the size that Word uses for displaying icons by following these steps:
You can also, if you prefer, change the icon size in a macro. This is done by setting the .LargeButtons property of the CommandBars collection to either True or False. The correct syntax follows:
CommandBars.LargeButtons = True
This line turns on the large icons, whereas setting the property to False turns them off.
Tip #190 applies to Microsoft Word versions: 97 2000 2002 2003
