    Change default height/width of up/down arrow, heading, bottom bar

    I was using Excel and couldn't get the bottom bar to display--to change to
    another worksheet--so I somehow INCREASED THE HEIGHT of this bar. (I later
    realized that my windows machine was acting up as I had put it in hibernate
    mode.)

    Anyway this changed the settings throughout my computer, including the width
    of up/down arrows (I can no longer see a value larger than 1 digit as the bar
    to the right is too large) and also default heading sizes from the
    internet--making some of the systems that I subsribe to UNUSABLE! Please
    please help me change this setting back. For example, the bar to the right
    which I am using right now to scroll the text up and down is much WIDER than
    it needs to be.

    I am using Microsoft Excel 2000 and Windows XP professional.

    Any suggestions--including knowing whether I need to reinstall
    completely--are much appreciated. Thanks so much--jojo

    To change the scroll bar, right click the desktop in windows, select
    properties>appearance, click advanced
    there you should be able to see scrollbar from the dropdown, change that to
    something less and use trial and error to
    find what you want. 16 or 17 should be a good size
