Default Excel should allow me to change text color & font within tabs.

I need to use many different colors of tabs. The problem is that most of the
dark colors have thin white text. I fear that this will be difficult to read
for some people. I want to change the text to a wider/bolder one and the
color to something more visible.

I know of no way to change the Font color on sheet tabs.

The size of the sheet tabs are governed by the setting for Scrollbars in
Windows Display Appearance. Mine are at 18. Start there and work your way
up or down. The font will increase or decrease with the size of sheet tabs.

Win98 as example...

Start Settings Control Panel Display Appearance(WinXP
AppearanceAdvanced)

"Item" drop down select Scrollbar

Change setting to Taste
Apply
OK

Depending upon your settings, you may have to re-boot to see the changes.

Also note: this is a Global change and will affect all Applications.
