Hey all,

For some strange reason all of microsoft office has bold tool bars and menu items. Access, Excel, Word, and VB are all like that. I have no idea what is going on.

It seems to have happened around the time I installed Visual Basic. Does anyone have any ideas?

Did you check your display properties,on the appearance tab, and check if the menu font was set to bold?
 
Yes I checked that. The bold menus seem to be specific to Microsoft products. Do you know of a setting anywhere else?

 
Hi SchoonDog,

I have similar effects sometimes when I'm short on memory. Usually rebooting the PC clears it. If you've just installed VB (or anything else) might it just be one too many things for your system?

Enjoy,
tony
