    Text size

    How can I change, specifically, the text size of Explorer windows without changing the other text sizes? ie. without changed to 'Large Fonts' I have been going through all the settings in 'Advanced Appearance' but cannot find the one that changes this! (takes forever) Cheers, Bill.
