    Excel 2013 copy colour scheme from another workbook

    How do I copy a colour scheme from another work book in Excel 2013? I could do it in 2010 but can not work out how to do it in 2013.

    Thanks in advance.

    That was the process I had used in 2010 but in 2013 File>>Options>>Save>> doesn't have a "Colors Copy Colors From" option.

    Any other ideas?

    Apologies - I have it now.

    It was File>>Options>>Save>>Choose what colors will be seen in previous versions of Excel: Colors>>Copy colors from dropdown>>Ok and then go to page layout and select from the custom palettes.

    Thanks for your help Sixthsense .
