Missing default font? (missing fonts?)

[Elizabeth A. Swoope]

Access 2002, Win2K

The font for datasheet view has changed from Arial to some
hideous serif font. When I use Options, Datasheet tab,
there are no fonts listed under Font: (default font). On
another computer running the same version of Access, WinXP,
there are fonts.

Why is there no list of fonts? This is really annoying
because I use this computer to grade assignments and every
darned mdb I open is now in that annoying serif font.

I'm having no problems with fonts in any of the other
applications I use.

I believe this is caused by having too many fonts in your fonts folder.
Try deleting ones you don't use. More info/ideas in

I am having the same problem and have reloaded the program
and the problem is still there.

I have been unable to locate an answer in the Microsoft
Knowledge base.

Joan,

Thank you very much. That was the cause of the problem.
