changing font of default comment for excel 2003

Get a new PC Win7 and install Office 2003 the police by default for comments Excel has changed from 8 PT to pt 9.

How can I change this? I know that under XP, it's a setting in Windows for ToolTips, but I lost a lot of time looking for the same parameter in 7. I don't really want to resort to the alternative saving a macro call.

Thank you very much.

Thank you very much indeed to Ken Puls of the Canadian forum (http://www.excelguru.ca) for coming up with the answer, as follows:

If you use Windows 7 Start or Basic:

  • Open Control Panel, and then click the display icon
  • ON the left, click change color scheme
  • Click on advanced
  • Click on advanced appearance settings

If you are using another version of Windows 7:

  • Right click on the desktop, and then click Customize
  • Click the color of the window (below)
  • Click on advanced appearance settings

At this point, you should be able to select the ToolTip in the menu "Item":

Note to Microsoft: you really have to make life so difficult and intuitive for your customers?

    Hi Dennis,

    Acrobat CC is not compatible with MS Office 2003 and currently, we only sell Acrobat DC. However, if you opt for a subscription of Acrobat DC you can install and use Acrobat XI that is compatible with Office 2003, but only to a certain update.

    Please check details of compatibility here: web browsers and applications of PDFMaker

  • Want to change the WordPad default values for font size and line spacing

    I use WordPad quite heavily because it is simple and fast.  But the new version of W - 7 seems to not allow you to change the default values for the font, size and line spacing.  The default values are not suitable for a large part of what I do and I'd like to find a way of quickly and easily, either make the changes permanent or change this to open with a single click of mouse or at most two.  Any suggestions?

    It is the "best" solution to workaround.  After you change your Default.rtf custom, simply move it to your system32 directory and add the "Default.rtf" at the end of the location of your target on the property sheet for your file WordPad.exe.

    Every time that you open its default location in the directory c:\program files\windows NT\Accessoires WordPad.exe, it defaults to now your Default.rtf custom.

  • Cannot create excel object for Excel 2007/Windows 7

    Hello everyone,
    The code below works fine for Excel 2003 / Windows XP/IE6 but does not work for Excel 2007/Windows 7/IE8.

    *********************
    application: = Client_OLE2. CREATE_OBJ ('Excel.Application');

    Client_OLE2. SET_PROPERTY (application, 'Visible', 'TRUE');

    workbooks: = Client_OLE2. Get_Obj_Property (application "Filing cabinets");

    args1: = Client_OLE2.create_arglist;
    ************************

    There is no error when running the form, debug, we found that the control ignores all of the code above.

    I use Oracle forms 10.1.2.3 and jre 1.6.0_16.

    Would appreciate your help in providing a solution for the above question.

    Thank you

    I recommend you try the following in the order I listed the.

    1 disable UAC. See here: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Turn-User-Account-Control-on-or-off

    2. Add a SYNCHRONIZATION; After your first line of code (that you provided in the post - I guess that's all that)

    application := Client_OLE2.CREATE_OBJ('Excel.Application');
    SYNCHRONIZE;
    

    3 uninstall JRE 1.6.0_16 and reconfigure for use with the last one which is 1.6.0_21

    4. install the patch 9282569forms. This hotfix requires that you upgrade to Jacob to version 1.10.1. It will also take that you generate a new webutil.plx (new webutil.pll is included in the patch). Read the patch readme carefully before installing.

    Note that more recent versions of MS Office like '2007' have not been tested with 10.1.2 and webutil Forms, so it may not work properly if MS made changes to the structure of COM in their products.

  • Repeating the Excel 2003 security updates

    This last Tuesday, downloaded Windows updates and installed a first series of 10 updates, then during the next hours downloaded and installed at least four or five more simple updates before finally obviously get what she wanted and that constant updating process.  At this point, I really don't pay attention to what was being downloaded like every single update.

    Today, my computer has downloaded up to present nine has security updates for Excel 2003 only, each apparently exactly the same day, with each of them supposedly completely, install through downloading everything and install the process without a hitch... except for the constant repetition of the download.  I recognize that the time between each of them becomes a greater length, but so far, they are still happening.  Frankly, I am tired of this two and begins to wonder what is happening.  Each of them takes only about 3 minutes to do, nor requires a reboot, but it just keeps reappearing and there annoying.

    I want to know if there are in fact only a number of these necessary updates, and if so, why the hell can not all be made at the same time with a single download?  If not, is there something wrong here with Windows updates or my computer (the last scares me - I need this computer!)?  I have tried restarting my computer for the simple reason that I wanted to check my e-mail and various other things quickly before going to bed, because I had a long day of shopping, walking on and see doctors.  I want to stop and get some sleep, but this thing continues to display!  I'm at the point of waiting until it is crossed once and then stop really fast before another begins.

    Does anyone have an idea as to what is happening?  He just asked for another!

    EDIT: 09-13-2013. 10:33. after the last "update" and the display of this message, I was asked for the other two of these same updates until I finally did it with what I was doing, making total 12 from the moment I turned on the computer (constantly. 22:30) and when I turned it off (about 12 h 40). Each of the last three times were much more tense, but he showed.  This morning the update appeared again while my mother used my computer as his own refused to connect to the wifi while I worked with her.  The rear plug, my computer, I got the update that said she wanted, and it was the same thing.  He's been through, supposed to be updated and disappeared.  Three minutes later, another one appeared, SAME THING DAMNED.  I don't know if my update does not save the update or if there is a loop at the end from where the updates, but I'm giving up.  I hope there, can someone help me solve this problem, please!

    EDIT #2: 13/09/2013, 18:20.  Later - my mother's computer usually does its updates at least a day behind me.  Today, she started with the large group of 10 that my problems began.  However, she was able to see that one of the updates, it believes that it is the Excel one since the brief overview of the error message she had before his computer does restart, has not ended.  She saw something to the effect of "could not install, error writing."  His computer is now pulling him constantly trying to install the update to Excel 2003 security with the same number (KD2810048), that mine made.  We both left it sit at the point of what awaits us install OK just to stop the cycle and be able to work, as our computers are the two otherwise works well.

    Our computers are not connected in any way, except that mine is in wifi with the physical connection, and his box uses a wifi adapter to wireless interface with the box on my desk from his bedroom.  The only time where everything comes and goes is files between our computers, as she has the printer, is if I want to print.  I have to put the files on my USB key, in his computer and print from the files on the flash.  Together had just updated us all our security (MSE, free Spybot, Malware free - and they all work very well together and have for more than three years, so don't tell me that "they are not compatible") and ran clean scans on our computers before this all started.

  • Font by default for XP or 7

    How can we set the same font of default fonts for XP or 7 al labview

    In LabVIEW, the default font is one of the uses of the Windows dialog box, it may be different between the BONES. In fact, the size changes between Windows XP and Windows 7.

    The problem should go away if you change your LabVIEW (.ini) file. You can find it at this path:

    C:\Program Files (x 86) \National Instruments\LabVIEW 2021\LabVIEW.ini

    Add these lines at the end of the file to have a homogeneous front:

    FPFont = "Tahoma" 13
    BDFont = "Tahoma" 13
    appFont = "Tahoma" 13
    dialogFont = "Tahoma" 13
    systemFont = "Tahoma" 13
    hardCodeFontNames = True

    Best regards.

  • I created a form with fields default text for a user to update/customize.  Is there a way to style of the text, so I can quickly identify the changes to the default text in a field?

    I created a form with fields default text for a user to update/customize.  Is there a way to style of the text, so I can quickly identify the changes to the default text in a field?

    You can use a validation script customized to each text field that looks like:

    event.target.textFont = event.value = event.target.defaultValue? font. HelvI: fonts. Helv;

    This will make the text italic (Helvetica) when the field value is the value default and regular otherwise. There are other properties that you can use instead, as the field color, border width, background color, text or text size...

    The new tab in Firefox 33 zoom is too high to see all 12 of my thumb nail. I changed it using ctrl - but the next time I opened a new tab, the zoom is 100%. How can I change the default zoom for the new tab only?

    I posted a style rule to shrink the tiles, which allows several of them on the page, but naturally reduces their legibility. You can experiment with the dimensions to find a look that works for you.

    https://userstyles.org/styles/106326/shrink-new-tab-thumbnails

    I use the Stylish extension to experiment because of its preview function that allows me to see the effect quickly. You can install it from the site of modules, then after restart of Firefox while searching for his "S" icon in the toolbar to manage Styles so you can edit and experiment.
