Default Drop Down Problems

I've created a drop down list and when I click the arrow to see my choices,
the text in the drop down box is really tiny! There are only 2 options in
the drop down box, so I don't know why it is doing this. Once I select an
option, the font in the cell is avg. size. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Default Drop Down Problems

Assuming you are speaking about a Data Validation dropdown, the default font
is 8 point and cannot be changed.
