Thanks. The things you learn in these newsgroups.

Hi

I don't think this is an XL2007 feature. That has been the only method
of increasing tab size in all previous versions of Excel as far as I am
aware.

Hi Dave,

Here's a rather ridiculous solution:

The font size for tabs seems to be based on the scrollbar size in the
OS.
So, in XP for instance, if you go to the Appearance section of Display
Properties, click on the Advanced button, then select the scrollbar
and
increase its size, you will also increase the size of the tabs in
XL2007.
Unfortunately, this will increase the size of all of your scrollbars.

This is a weird question, but all of the sudden, in XL 2007, the font
size of
the tab names has gone to about 5. Anyone know of a setting that
changes the
font size of the tab name? And if so, how to set it to a more
reasonable
size?
