    Seems too obvious an answer so suspect the question is about something else. If so, please clarify

    In the VBA editor, click on Tools>Options and select the Editor Format tab

    On reflection, think you are talking about controls on a form or report. If so, click on the Format tab, select the controls or controls you want to change, then change font etc

    I want to change the font and size of menu items in a form object such as

    File
    Open
    Save
    Save As
    Exit

    I know about the VBA editor options where I can change fonts and font sizes.

    Do you mean shortcut menus? The options you see when you right click? If not please provide a screenshot to demonstrate where you mean

    if that is the standard File/Help tabs provided by Access, I don't believe you can.
