Default List Box - Change Font

Yes, with the button selected right mouse click and choose properties. As
you go down the list you will see the font listed. Select the font and it
will give you a drop down box of choices.

Default List Box - Change Font

I think I used the wrong terminology. I'm using a drop down box. One box
where you click on an arrow and it gives you a list to choose from then
populates the box.
When I right mouse click on the arrow, there is an option for "Format
Control" that has a folder for Properties, but "Object Positioning" is the
only option. Can't find a Font choice anywhere.
Also have an old version - I have Excel 2002.

You need to use the listbox from the control toolbox toolbar as opposed to
the one from the forms toolbar,
you can't change the font for the one you are using.
