Greetings group, my 1st post here.

I've been trying to figure out how to use/create additional text font colors
beyond the 40 palate or 16 additional in the Format Cells dialog.

Is this possible? Is there a show codes area to tweak? or better still a
color wheel for the Text Font Color available.

I'm using: Microsoft(R) Office Excel 2003 (11.8012.6568) SP2

- thanks in advance M.D.

About all you can do is modify the existing colors under
Tools>Options>Colors>Modify.

This is not a global change, just a workbook by workbook basis.

You can import your modified scheme from one book to another.

This also changes the background colors..same palette.

Gord,

Thanks for the simple work-a-round. Even got a color wheel to boot :)
