MS Office Forum / Excel / New Users / March 2008How do I change the color for cell selection in excel?
I just started using Excel 2007. In the older versions when I select a row, column, or specific group of cells, Excel would highlight the group in a certain color. In Excel 2007, it simply surrounds the selected group of cells with a thick black line. I've tried going into Excel Options under Advanced but couldn't find how to do this. Can you assist me in changing this feature? > I just started using Excel 2007.

However, it does use a color, a very, very, very light blue(u can see this if you try to highlight a cell that is colored dark blue). I cannot figure out where to change this.. HELP!!!, ITS DRIVING ME NUTS!!! >However, it does use a color, a very, very, > very light blue(u can see this if you try to highlight a cell that is > colored dark blue). I cannot figure out where to change this.. > HELP!!!, ITS DRIVING ME NUTS!!! Just wondering if you ever found an answer to this. It's a horrible selection color and my eyes always strain to actually see what has/ hasn't been selected. Changing the color scheme for the display doesn't seem to affect Excel 2007 at all either. I'm not impressed with MS Office Suite 2007.

The funny thing is when I reinstall Excel (repair), it fixes the problem temporarily and then randomly loses the highlight again! Very annoying.

Please fix this Microsoft! I also cannot see the highlighting because it is so light. I would really appreciate an answer. If anyone finds one, please point us to it.

I find it extremely difficult to visually locate which cell has been highlighted with a section area. PLEASE CHANGE THE COLOE SCHEMES If you want to suggest this to MS, try http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/suggestions.aspx?Sitename=5&Type=2 HTH, JP > Add me to the list.
