[comp.sys.mac.apps] MS Excel font changing

/* ---------- "MS Excel font changing" ---------- */
Is it possible in version 2.2 of MS Excel to change the formula bar font? Need
to use the same customized font in the formula bar as the cells so the bar
won't show some of the custome characters as garbage..



I would suggest putting your custom font into Excel and giving it the same
resource id as Geneva 12 (or does it use 9 or 10? Whatever). This should cause
it to use the custom one instead.

Use Font/DA Mover to install it. Just press option while clicking 'open' to
allow Excel to show up in the SFGetFile dialog.

Hope this works,

Change string Geneva12 in one of the Excel resources
(dont remember which) to something like
Cretin12 after which Excel will use current application font
that you can change at will with AppFont cdev.
