Hi,

I am using Office 2007 and XP Pro as an operating system.

Please could someone tell me how to set the default font for comments. My
system seems to default to Times New Roman and I would like to use Arial.

Many thanks

Display the Styles pane, for example by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Shift+S. Click the
Manage Styles button. On the Edit tab, locate each of the styles. Click the
Modify button and make the desired changes. When you are done, click OK
until you get back to the Manage Styles dialog. To apply the settings to the
current document as well as to its template, click the "New documents based
on this template" radio button, and then click OK.

Hi Stefan,

Many thanks again for all the input - I never thought to look in style
management - thought there would be a more "direct" method!

Once again thanks a ton!

Cheers

Bill

Well, generally you can use the Styles pane when changing styles
(right-click the style and choose Modify from the context menu), but the
Comment Text and Balloon Text styles aren't visible there, at least not by
default.

Anyway, I'm glad I could help!
