Just a quickie. Is it possible to change the font type and size that is displayed in a data validation dropdown list? I want to use Wingdings characters but even though I have default font set to Wingdings and the actual cell set to Wingdings, the dropdown still appears in Arial?

I'm using Excel 97 by hte way.

Select a range of cells. The total appears in bottom right of Excel screen. Right-click total to add Max, Min, Count, Average.
I've tried doing it loads of times and have looked into it a lot, but I've never found any evidence to say you can, but then again, I never thought Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman were going to split up

If you use a VBA combobox you can though, but that's not even remotely useful now is it
