How do I set the default font for hyperlinks in Excel?

Guest

When I type an email or webaddress in an Excel spreadsheet, and Excel
converts it automatically to a hyperlink, it also changes the font to Arial.
I would prefer that it remain in Times New Roman. How can I turn off this
feature, or change the default so that the hyperlink is shown in Times New
Roman?

Format>Style>Style Name>Hyperlink>Modify.

Change Font here.

Open a new workbook. Customize as you wish, including your Styles. File>Save
As Type: scroll down to Excel Template(*.XLT) and select. Name your workbook
"BOOK"(no quotes). Excel will add the .XLT to save as BOOK.XLT.

Store this workbook in the XLSTART folder usually located at........

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel\XLSTART

This will be the default workbook for File>New

Existing workbooks are not affected by these settings.

You can also open a new workbook and delete all but one sheet. Customize as
you wish then save this as SHEET.XLT in XLSTART folder also. It now becomes
the default Insert>Sheet.

More can be found on this in Help under "templates"(no quotes).
