Default Excel 2003-2007 (another one)

If I open an excell worksheet in 2007 that was created in 2003, the font
changes and then when the 2003 user opens it later, the font is still wrong;
I have downloaded the fonts that 2007 didn't have that we were using in 2003,
but no luck

Default Excel 2003-2007 (another one)

Hi Zil,

I'm having a similar problem with Excel worksheets created in Excel 2003.
After the network administrator changed it to Arial 12, my manager opened the
same spreadsheet in Excel 2003 and found it set to Arial 16. One would think
the worksheet would have stayed at Arial 16. However, when opening in Excel
2007, the font had changed to Times New Roman 20 without any intervention on
our part. I reset the font on the document to Arial 12 and saved it again.
My manager opened it again and found it set correctly to Arial 12. The
document is in compatibility mode too. I'm not sure if this has any effect
though. Today when I opened the document in Excel 2007 the font had again
changed to Arial 20. I'm not sure how this is happening. Only the Network
Administrator, my manager, and myself have write access to the file. I'm
looking for an answer myself and will send you any answers I can dig up. Can
anybody please point to a solution? Thank you.

Rich
