Resize Scrollbars

Excel’s scrollbars size is not adjustable. By some reason if you want to increase or decrease these scrollbar size, your only hope is to change the scrollbar size settings at operating system level. Read on if you still want to go ahead as following steps will change scrollbar setting across all the programs.

This is the sequence in my Windows XP. Similar commands should be available in other OS as well.

Start > Control Panel > Appearance and Themes > Display (in category view)

Start > Control Panel > double click Display (in classic view)

In the Display Properties dialogue box, click on Appearance tab and click Advanced button! In Advanced Appearance dialogue box, under Item drop-down, select Scrollbar, adjust the size as per your needs to click OK in all open dialogue boxes.
