Excel filtering indicator
It's impossible for many people to distinguish between black and dark blue -
the colors used for filtering indicators in Excel. Is there a way to change the dark blue to something more visisble, such as red?????????? ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

Excel filtering indicator
The problem is probably with your monitor, such as using a laptop,
or even your color settings. Though color blindness is another possibility and a good reason that data should not be relying on color to convey information (and printing in B&W is the norm). For instance on my laptop of the 16 basic computer colors, about seven of them look black unless you look at an angle or adjust the colors to simulate looking at an angle.
