Font Size in Drop Down List
I have a drop down list where I want to change the Font Size. I have tried
changed it in the cells where the data resides and also in the cells where you have the drop down list and neither way increase the Font Size. I am sure it is something very simple that I am forgetting. Hope someone has the answer. |

Font Size in Drop Down List
Mindie
What type of drop-down list? Data Validation? Font size cannot be changed although you can use Zoom to make the whole sheet larger. See Debra Dalgleish's site for workarounds. http://www.contextures.on.ca/xlDataVal08.html#Font Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Mon, 10 Jul 2006 12:40:02 -0700, Mindie wrote: I have a drop down list where I want to change the Font Size.

Yes it is Data Validation. Problem is that I do not want to change the whole
sheet, just what is in the drop-down list. "Gord Dibben" wrote: Mindie What type of drop-down list? Data Validation?

Then you will have to go the Combo-box route.
Did you check out Debra's site? I'll direct you to another of her pages which shows how to use a Combo-box. Note:VBA coding required with this method. http://www.contextures.on.ca/xlDataVal10.html Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Mon, 10 Jul 2006 15:04:01 -0700, Mindie wrote: Yes it is Data Validation.
