It appears I knew how to do this at some point because I have two workbooks where the column headers for one of them (i.e., "A", "B", "C", etc.) are displayed using a different font than the other. How can I change it so that the "A" in column A is displayed using the font I want?

I'm using Excel 2007. I looked through the options and know how to change the font on the worksheet, but I can't find how to change the column and row headers.

Thanks.
 

Excel Facts

What do {} around a formula in the formula bar mean?
{Formula} means the formula was entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter signifying an old-style array formula.
The Row/Column header display font is controlled by the Normal style.
• Right-click on the Normal ribbon button (on the Home tab)
...Select: Modify
...Change the fond to whatever suits you

NOTE: changing that font also impacts the default font throughout the workbook (and maybe all others, too...I haven't tested)

Does that help?

Thank you both. I've got my new workbooks set up the way I want thanks to the link and Ron, your suggestion quickly fixed my old workbook. Again, thank you both for all your help.
