Question for your windows xp experts....

Tue Feb 14, 2006 1:17 pm

You know how if you have a word document or excel document on your desktop and it is a lengthy title and it cuts off the text until you highlight the icon?

How can I fix it so the full title is always showing? Someone mentioned it long ago but I have since forgotten and reformatted

1) Right Click on the Desktop and bring up properties.
2) Click on the Appearance tab.
3) Click the Advanced button.
4) Select 'Icon Spacing (Horizontal)' from the 'Item' drop down box.
5) Increase the size to achieve the desired effect.
