Can't format font colors or cell fill-in colors

I cannot fill-in a cell with a color or format the color of the font. I
verified that this I can change font color in Word. So it appears to only be
happening in Excel. Already tried relaunching and rebooting computer.
Anyother ideas or places to look where I may have changed a setting?

Does this happen in all workbooks, or just a single workbook?

Also, are you saying that the color change features are active but

when you apply them nothing happens, or that the options are actually
dimmed and can't be applied?

This occurs in all workbooks. Also, the color selections using the pull-down
menu or the tool bar icons are not greyed out.
