SUMMARY

In Microsoft Excel version 2.20, the font used in the row and column headings of worksheets and macro sheets is the Standard Font. If any style (that is, Bold, Italic, Underline, Strikeout, Outline, or Shadow) is applied to the Standard Font by choosing Standard Font from the Options menu and setting a style, this style will be reflected in the row and column headings.

However, any color that is applied to the Standard Font will not be reflected in the row and column headings. To change the color of the row and column headings, do the following:

  1. From the Options menu, choose Display.

  2. Select a color in the Gridline & Heading Color section.

Note: There is currently no method of displaying row and column headings in a different color than the gridlines.

For more information on the Standard Font, see page 530 in the "Microsoft Excel Reference" version 2.2 manual.
