Command Prompt Display Resolution

Is there any way I can change the resolution in my command prompt in w2k? The text in the default setting is quite "bunched" up together. Is there anyway I can change the line spacing between lines of text, or make the text bigger? The reason I'm asking this question is that I'm running a dos-based program (MS quickbasic 4.5. I know it's a very old program, but I need to program with it.) and it's a bit hard to read the menus and text with the line spacing so small. Is there anyway I can get the exact same display settings like win 95/98?
