I created a drop-down menu going to Data and then Validation.  When I click
on the arrow to drop down the menu, the options appear correctly but in font
so small that I cannot read them.  After I click on an option, it appears
correctly in the box.  How can I increase this font size so it's legible in
the drop-down menu?  The font in the box is fine, it's only in the drop-down
menu that I cannot read it.

What you're asking for can be done with a bit of Excel trickery....
See Debra Dalgleish's website:

Does that help?
