Yes, buttons for increase and decrease font size are now on the formatting bar.

Thank you for your help.

Both my problems with OOo now solved.

I look forward to using it in place of Word97.

Word 97 has a short cut so that font size of a selection can be
increased repeatedly.  One use is to select a paragraph mark and then
quickly change paragraph spacing.  It is also gives a "dtp-like"
facility when designing a quick poster.

Is this facility available in OOo?  I use this a lot in Word97.

Thank you for any help as to how to do this in OOo - or is it a
facility that we may hope for?

View|Toolbars|Formating
rightmost side is a dropdown arrow, select that and click 'Visible
Buttons'. Scroll down and click 'Increase Font'. Unfortunately it
increments by 2 & I'm not aware of how change it to do it by 1. Perhaps
someone else on this list will know.
