You can't change the font or font size for a Data Validation dropdown
list. To make the font appear larger, you can use programming to adjust the zoom setting when the cell is selected. There's sample code he http://www.contextures.com/xlDataVal08.html#Larger Or, there's a sample file here that provides a combobox from which you can select one of the values from the data validation list. In thecombobox, you can set the font size: http://www.contextures.com/excelfiles.html Under 'Data Validation', look for 'Data Validation Combobox' RL wrote: I have validated cells in my worksheet, which allow lists.
