Validation Drop-Down list formatting
 

Is it possible to format the data in a validation drop-down list in Excel 2003?

It depends on the level of formatting you are looking for. I was able to
select acell containing a dropdown for a list, and use the options under the
format menu to change text properties (strike-through, text color)

Oops, my bad... I meant size-wise... The text on the spreadsheet is fine, but
the text in the drop-down is significantly smaller. I'd like to make the
drop down text larger without making the spreadsheet itself any larger....
