Change Contacts NOTES field default font

I imported a few thousands contacts into Outlook 2997. All of the notes
fields are in Calibri. I'd like to change them all to Times. Can this be
done on a mass basis?

TIA

I don’t think so.

Can a default font be applied for future entries?

Yes. Tools, options, mail format, fonts... the message bodies use the top
font setting for new mail. If you change the plain text font it will
reflect on all items that use plain text - unfortunately Notes fields use
RTF. This will change it for all items- mail and the notes field of every
item type.

Actually... now that I think about it, the default font is the +body font.
you might be able to change it globally to apply it retroactively. But - the
change may affect more than just the notes field.
