how to change default font in Access 2010?

Hi, All,

I've been searching around for a solution for this problem but with no success.  In Access 2010, we can't change the default font of the datasheet; we can only change the size, weight, etc.  However, in Access 2007 we could change all of them.

Can anyone tell me how to make the change?

Thanks!

Hi

You could try using the Font button in the Theme group.

Alternatively switch to design view. Click the Format tab and then Select All.

You can then use any combination from the Font Group to chnage the format.

Switch back to datasheet and you will see the changes there.

Hi

Sorry thought you meant form datasheet view.

Have you tried the button in the top left corner of the datasheet. (to the left of the first field title).

Hi,

Does anybody know?  I want to change the DEFAULT font, that is, the font for any new table that I create, or any new database that I create.

Thanks!

I've just come across this issue too.. 

I thought  the office 2007 reg settings might change it. but when i tested it I found no change.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Access\Settings]

"Default Font Name"="Arial"
