I have Excel 7 along with Vista. I am having problems in coloring the cells as well as coloring the text in the cell. It was so easy in previous versions of excel. I never had any trouble with this simple function.
Cell/Row Highlight:
But in 7, I don't know what'g wrong when I select the whole row and click on the format color, on selecting any color for the row or cell, it never gets highlighted.
Why this is happening ?
Text Hilight:
When I highlight text in any cell and apply color to it, the hilight color only appears when I click on the text. As get out of the text from that cell, the text goes back to normal color. Why this is happening ?
I am not sure whether I need to change any settings for 7 to do this.. I looked at the help. It simply says select the cells or rows and simply selects the desired color from the Format menu..
I am not sure why microsoft makes things so complicated.. In the older versions, in tools and options, quite a few useful options are there to checks all these settings.. this version is so cumbersome..
Any help please ..???
This is resolved. The issue was not with excel but with my user profile. I am not sure what is wrong and I deleted and recreated my user profile.. This problem resolved. Thank you for your time.
