I've started having a problem with my default font in datasheets. In all my 
dbs, the datasheet font was suddenly something different. I went into the 
Tools - Options - Datasheet tab and the Default Font field is empty and there 
are no fonts showing in the list. I have dozens of fonts available and this 
just started happening recently after years of working fine. I have Access 
2002 running on Win XP.
Any ideas?

Thanks

Maury, there was a problem with this in Access 2002. I thought MS had fixed 
it with one of the early service packs.

Suggestions:

1. Go to http://support.microsoft.com/sp/ and download the latest service 
pack for Office XP. While you are there get the one for Microsoft JET 4.0 
Database Engine as well.

2. If that doesn't fix it, try uninstalling some fonts. From memory, the 
problem only occurred if had hundreds of fonts installed.
