Trudy - if your text size is set for the largest, then it won't get any larger by using the control key & scrolling. Sorry. Jacquie

Hi Tricia, Just checking....hold down CTRL button, scroll mouse button........is this correct ? as nothing happens. My text view, is set at the largest possible, would this make a difference, to the instructions ?

Hi Trudy I cannot help in saving names in uppercase. I don't know if you realise that by holding down the control button on your keyboard and scrolling your mouse button, you can enlarge the print on screen. regards Tricia

I have been entering my surnames in 'upper case',, as it is easier for me to see them ( as I am visually ompaired / blind ). I save the data, but when I come back ( after signing out ), to enter more data, all the surnames, are in lower case. It is very frustrating, to say the least !!!!! Can anyone, please enlighten me ?
