Download 235.zip and extract WordProcessor.mvba from the zip file. Place the mvba in the folder pointed to by MS_VBASEARCHDIRECTORIES Keyin vba load WordProcessor to load the project.

The text size value starts at 15, and can be changed by increments of 1 by using the spinbuttons. When you can comfortably read the text, close the dialog by poking on the Done button.
