Key Notes

  • To make changes in a font, you need to use the VBA Font object.
  • There is a total of 18 properties with the font object that you can access and make changes.

VBA Font Object

In VBA, there is a font object which you can use to change properties of the font from a cell, like, font color, font size, font type, and you can also apply bold and italic to the font.

VBA Font Color

To change the color of the font, you have two different ways:

1. Using Color Constants

Excel has a few color constants that you can use to apply color to the font. For example, if you want to apply the red color to the font in the cell A1, the code would be like below:

In the above code, after the font object, color is the property and you have used the vbRed constant that tells VBA to apply the red color to the cell A1. There is a total of eight constants that you can use:

You can also use the RGB color code to apply color to the font. RGB is the combination of red, green, and blue colors, where you can create a custom color using the code. Let’s say if you want to apply a combination of green and blue color to cell A1 the code would be:

VBA Font Size

Font object also gives you access to the size property of the font. Let’s say you want to apply the font size of 16 to the font in the cell A1, the code would be:

If you want to apply font size to all cell in a worksheet you can use the following code:

And if only want to apply font size to cells where you have data, the code would be:

Or to the selected cell.

VBA Font Name

In the same way, you can also change the font name using the name property of the font object. Let’s say you want to apply “Consolas” font the cell A1. The code would be:

While using this property, you need to type the correct name of the font that you want to apply, and if somehow the name is incorrect, it won’t show you an error.
