    Is there a way, without changing the entire desktop, of enlarging the icons on the taskbar. I need to put on glasses to see them :cool:

    Another way ....

    Display Properties > Appearance > Advanced and from the drop down list select Caption buttons and adjust the size.

    I took BMoore's suggestioni and it did what I wanted but was wondering about the other idea from "appearance" etc. Where is that option?

    You get to Display Properties by either right clicking on a empty space on the Desktop then left clicking Properties or go to Start>Control Panel>Display.
