    printing problem in excel 2007

    my windows (windows 7) theme is WINDOWS CLASSIC that is yellow text on black back background. So if I print an excel sheet (excel 2007) (HP deskjet printer F 4100 series) i get yellow text on white paper. This is not readable. I wrote the following macro and run it before printing.

    ======
    Sub ccolor()
    Worksheets("sheet1").Activate
    Dim r As Range
    Set r = Range("$A$6:$G$45")
    MsgBox r.Address
    r.Select
    r.Cells.Interior.color = RGB(255, 255, 255)
    r.Cells.Font.color = RGB(1, 1, 1)

    MsgBox "macro over. now print"
    End Sub

    ====================

    even then though all the columns except one column is black print on white paper. But one column is again is yellow. that column is text.

    why is it so;l

    To circumvent the problem I change the theme to windows basis (black on white) and print then it is ok. But this theme is not good on the eye and so change it back to Classic. so every time I print I have to change the theme and then back after printing.

    Is there any way out. Many thanks
    I am not an expert. better solutions may be available
