Default DialogActiveCellFont

I am trying to use this to format a range.

ActiveCell.Range("A1:L1").Select
Application.Dialogs(xlDialogActiveCellFont).Show Arg3:=0


But it only format the first cedll in the range. How do I get this to
change all cells in the range?

Thanks

hi
i think because you have activecell laced through the code.
and if you are formatting a range with code, why are you showing the format
box?????
try this instead....
With Range("A1:L1").Font
.Name = "Arial" 'pick your own
.FontStyle = "Regular"
End With

Try this:

Sub fnt()
Range("A1:L1").Select
Application.Dialogs(xlDialogFormatFont).Show
End Sub

This is the complete code
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "Jan"
Selection.AutoFill Destination:=ActiveCell.Range("A1:L1"),
Type:=xlFillDefault
ActiveCell.Range("A1:L1").Select
'

Application.Dialogs(xlDialogActiveCellFont).Show Arg3:=0

When I delete the ActiceCell it does not make the changes at all.

If i insert a Range("A1:L1").Select before the application it only does
the first cell

I am trying to do a macro that copies the months across and then alows the
user to format them.
