    Background colour grey on entire worksheet

    I'm using Excel 2003 and there I have inherited a spreadsheet where the
    background colour on the worksheets with content are grey for the entire
    worksheet. I have tried all obvious routes to remove it, fill colour,
    autoformat, sheet background option, any macros that might be causing it but
    it appears none of these are the case. The fill colour won't change. I', sure
    this is explaining the very large file size. Any help appreciated.

    Have you looked at Conditional Formatting?

    I have looked at that. Nothing there. It's a real mystery.

    Maybe you were in pagebreak view with the page area not visible.

    I'd try View|Normal to see if that helps.

    And you can see some data, right?
