We encounter a strange problem with Excel (2000 and 2003):

In the standard Excel table done with Arial 10 the row height is 12.75
(17 Pixel). This applies to all my colleagues.

On my computer, however, I see a row height of 13.20 (20 pixel). We
didn't find the menue to change this general setting (the weak
workaround with the workbook causes a number of other problems).

Theirs - mine - Font setting
12.75 (17) - 13.20 (20) - Arial 10
12 (16) - 11.40 (19) - Arial 9
11.25 (15) - 10.20 (17) - Arial 8

As a result my Excel sheets never look&print the same on all the other
computers and so do their sheets on my computer.

Funny (I didn't believe my eyes):
If we de-install the driver for the graphics card running the computer
on it own ... the setting of the Excel is correct. As soon as we
re-install the graphics card driver software things are confused again.

Computer: Dell Latitude D820, graphics card nvidia Quatro NVS 120m
Same Windows, same Service Pack, same Patches,

Also those using the same computer with the same graphics card don't
have this problem ... !?

My IT-people are puzzled and Dell seems - as always - neither capable
nor willing to help (the computer is just a couple of month old)

Your help is much appreciated!
