The font size in me Excel worksheets is too large and I cannot find an answer
in either help or the knowledge base as to how to change it.

I assume you mean the appearance tab of the desktop properties. When I click "Advanced", I get a whole list of fonts to alter. Is this the right way to go about changing the setting; and if so, which font do I tinker with to get the font and size I want on the Excel sheet tabs? Thanks

Think the worksheet tab is governed by the size in the scrollbar setting

Say, in Windows XP:
Right-click at any empty spot in desktop > Properties
In Display Properties dialog, choose Appearance tab
Click "Advanced" button
In the Advanced Appearance dialog
Click the "Item" droplist > choose 'Scrollbar"
Set size lower* to say: 16 > OK > Apply

*as it seems too large? as per your orig. post
