I have an Excel file that has in-cell drop-down lists configured in a
worksheet for data validation. The font size on the drop-down list is too
small to be read easily. How do you change that font size?

Hi John

you can't, but check out

Julie:
You are awesome! That was just the workaround that I needed. Now if we
can just work out that nested IF statement issue, I can go to bed! Thanks
for your prompt and perfectly targeted responses.

Hi John

glad it helped ... the nest IF one is just touch more difficult and i think
i'll leave it for a responder who actually knows something about forecasting
amounts as i hate "re inventing the wheel" and i'ld probably make a square
one anyway in this case.

just wondering what part of the world you're in as it's only 3.45pm here

Thanks for your input. I am in Southern California (USA) and it is just
after midnight.

The original 1-2-3 forecasting model took about three months of off-and-on
coding to get tweaked correctly. Even after we were confident that we had
things nailed down, some other scenario would pop up and we would have to
stick another IF statement into the mix. Fortunately we had the foresight to
create a validation cell that would tell us immediately if something didn't
add up correctly and we knew that we had to find the problem. The tricky
part was finding where in the 120 month to month forecast it was!

This new and improved version is going to be an incredible business
forecasting tool if/when we get it right!

Thanks again for all your assistance.
