Excel VBA ComboBox DropDown Button Size--changed itself

Question

I have a workbook with several comboboxes (and listboxes) and a lot of vba written around them. I\'ve used the same code in the Workbook_Open procedure to format them for we

Answer 1

I spent a lot of time but no suitable solution in the internet.

I had the problem that on my laptop screen (not on the extended desktop monitor in the docking station!) the font size of a activeX combobox in a worksheet got smaller every time I clicked the dropdown button. Until the dropdown button is inaccessable small.

Manually I could reset the font size by changing the combobox size in the developer mode.

By VBA I do following which solves Microsofts problem:

Private Sub MyComboBox_DropButtonClick()
'MyComboBox.Font.Size = 12 'Has no effect!!!
Dim CbxWidth = 300 As Single 'How big the combobox should be
MyComboBox.Width = CbxWidth + 1 
ComboboxUpdate 'or whatever you want to do
MyComboBox.Width = CbxWidth 
End Sub

Hope it dont disturb if I write some german words to help also people in my native laguage:

1. Combobox Schrift wird kleiner und kleiner

2. Combobox Schrift ändert sich selbstständig

3. Combobox Schriftgrösse automatisch kleiner

4. Combobox automatische Anpassung Schriftgröße deaktivieren
