If this is a problem with all Excel files with coloured cells, the Windows OS
high contrast setting may be turned on. There is information in the following MSKB article: OFF: Changes to Fill Color and Fill Pattern Are Not Displayed http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-ca;320531 Gord Dibben Excel MVP On Tue, 22 Feb 2005 00:21:02 -0800, trizog wrote: Hello I just bought office 2003 professional and excel wont let me fill cells with color. also I am not able to add color to tabs.

Unless of course he just bought the cheaper Black and White version of Excel
instead of the Colour one. g -- Regards Ken.......................
