It's long been one of Windows best-known annoyances.Though I believe there is a registry hack you can make if you want to delve into the registry. You might possibly find a script for it at Kellys Korner. www.kellys-korner-xp.com You can of course resize normal Explorer windows with the shift key, but not the dialogue boxes. You will need a 3rd-party utility to do this--many are listed here: http://www.donationcoder.com/Reviews/Archive/DialogExtenders/index.html Only a couple of free ones, the rest are shareware. I use Openwide which seems to do the job OK, though it's not easy to understand how to set it--some trial and error may be required. It's very simple once you get the hang of it. (Hint--use the "settings" button to resize). It needs to run at startup to be effective.
