Changing font size of drop down box linked to cell
 
I have a drop-down box linked to a set of values in cells on the same
worksheet. The font size within the drop-down box is always small and is
unreadable with the sheet zoom set to 75%. How do I change the font within
the drop-down box to make the list readable?
Thanks

If it's a data validation dropdown list, you can't change the font size.
There are a couple of workarounds he

If it's a combobox from the Control toolbox, you can change the font
size by switching to Design view, opening the Properties window, and
changing the Font properties.

If it's a combobox from the Forms toolbar, you can't change the font size.
