@FellippeHeitor

How do you magnify the screen, is that a MAC thing?

Staying tuned for part 2

[FellippeHeitor]

Exactly, it's native to macOS (control + mouse wheel).

Thanks for watching!

Wow, QB was doing CSV files from beginning with Write, I probably learned that back in 90's and forgot all about it. Print #fh was alwys my main Output or Append command.

@FellippeHeitor  Susan Sarandon is 74 so I imagine she would be complimented by your age estimation :)

[FellippeHeitor]

Haha, totally. I Googled her after I shot the video and I gotta say she's doing really well.

Thanks for watching!

hi, on my Toshiba windows 10 ctrl+wheel of mouse has many different results depending of the situation:
in the webbrowser it changes the vision zooming in or out
in a window of system with forlders it cicles among the different ways to see the icons in that window
on the desktop image it makes a zoom in or out of icons but not  of the image used as background

but if you go into menu of windows accessories and you activate magnify glass  then you can use  ctrl+ wheel of mouse to magnify
