Default Data Validation text size


Hello all, does anyone know how/if the font size of the listed data in a
validation drop-down box can be changed?

It can't be changed directly, but Debra Dalgleish has a workaround using a
combobox on her Contextures site:

Hope this helps,

Do you know if this has been corrected in Excel 2007?

There's no change to the Data Validation settings in Excel 2007. You
can't adjust the font size, and are still limited to 8 items visible in
the drop down list.

Thanks. Boy, that's a poor design.
