The default font in the VBA editor isn't always the best choice for long hours of working with code. Here are a few tips on what to consider when choosing a font:
Monospaced Fonts: It is important to use a monospaced font so that all characters have the same width and indentations in the code are neatly aligned.
Minimize the risk of confusion: A good programming font clearly distinguishes between characters such as zero (0) and the letter O, or one (1) and the lowercase L (l).
Favorites: Besides Courier New, Consolas is especially popular because it looks modern and is displayed extremely sharply on screens.
Preview tools: If you are unsure how different font styles will look, you can use tools like https://onlineschriftartengenerator.de/ to get a feel for different typographies before changing the settings in the editor under Tools -> Options -> Editor format.
