How can I see document in color while I'm working?

[Jamie]

I need to be able to see document in full color while working. I've tried
switching views, etc. but the only way I can see color is in "print preview."

What colors are in your spreadsheet that are not being displayed on your screen? Are you saying that your screen display is just black and white even when you format cells for font or background colors?

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

The link does not work. I am working with Excel 2007. I probably need different instructions anyway. Any help appreciated.
