How to Change the Size of a Microsoft Office Drop

1. Open Microsoft Word by double-clicking the Word shortcut icon on your desktop or by clicking 'Start', pointing to 'Programs' or 'All Programs' and then finding Word in your programs list.
2. Click 'Tools' on the toolbar and then click 'Customize'. The 'Customize' dialog box will open.
3. Click on the 'Toolbars' tab. Make sure the name of the toolbar that contains the drop-down list you want to make wider or thinner has a checkmark beside it.
4. Leave the 'Customize' dialog box open and click on the drop-down box that you want to resize. You will notice that it will now have a thick black line around it.
5. Move your mouse to one of the outer edges of this thick black line. When you see a line with two arrows pointing right and left, click the box with your mouse and drag it to the size you want it, whether it is larger or smaller. When you are finished, close the 'Customize' box.
