Not sure it this is the right place or how to describe my problem. I have a brand new windows 10 and installed Office 2016. Now when I want to develop something in VBA in Excel or Word and I add a UserForm the icons in toolbox which represent the controls to use on the form are too small. The strange thing is, when I first added a form, the toolbox windows was hardly visible (first image). Does anyone know what the problem is? Or better how to solve it.

Initial toolbox Expanded toolbox

  • I am having the same issue. Have you been able to find a solution? I suspect that it has something to do with the intersection of Windows 10, high-DPI monitors, and java. I am having a similar issue with the statistical package Weka, and that seems to be the intersection there. Are you running Windows 10 on a high-dpi (4K) display? – devW Oct 06 '16 at 14:32
  • @devW, yes. Running on a Dell XPS15 windows 10 – Stephan Nov 05 '16 at 13:48

I had the same issue with SQL Management Studio. Same odd behaviour. Luckely today I stumbled upon a solution which works perfectly for SMSS. So I guess I can try it voor VBA as well.

SMSS solution

This is a nice workaround, but it is not needed anymore, because MS has an updated version available for SMSS which you can find here

Anyway, I know now what the issue is, so I can try this workaround for other applications too.
