Resize Excel’s Sheet Tabs
Category: General | [Item URL]
If your eyesight isn't what it used to be, you may want to increase the size of the sheet tabs displayed in your Excel workbooks.
This parameter is determined by a Windows system-wide setting. To change it,
select Start, Settings, Control Panel and double-click Display. In the
Display Properties dialog box, click the Appearance tab, and choose Scrollbar
from the Item list. Adjust the sheet tabs until they're the size you want. Be
aware that this setting affects the scroll bars in all your applications.

In particular, the user interface of the most recent version, Excel 2007, is vastly different from its predecessors. Therefore, the menu commands listed in older tips, will not correspond to the Excel 2007 user interface.
