SYMPTOMS
After you click the Zoom box in the title bar of Help in any of the Microsoft Office 98 Macintosh Edition programs, the size of the Help window may not change.



WORKAROUND
To workaround this behavior, use one of the following methods:

Method 1: Under OS 8.0 or 8.1
If you are using the OS 8.0 or 8.1, click the Zoom box a second time. The window is then maximized and restored. Otherwise, use the Size box to resize the window.

Method 2: Under System 7.x
If you are using System 7.x, resize the window by using the Size box.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.



MORE INFORMATION
You can use the Zoom box to quickly change the size of the selected window. Clicking the Zoom box the first time maximizes the window. Clicking it a second time restores the window to its original state. When you click the Zoom box to maximize the window, it fits all of the contents of the window onto the screen if possible.
