I used to have a simple macro I attached to a button that pressing once would
turn blue screen on and pressing again would turn it off. Unfortunately, I
lost it in a hard drive crash. I do most of my writing and editing in blue
screen but some graphics don't appear and I need to switch to white to view
them. It is cumbersome to navigate the menus to switch. Does anybody know
this macro?

You need to set Options.BlueScreen to True or False or, for a toggle as you
describe, to the opposite of its current value.

Sub ToggleBlueScreen()
   Options.blueScreen = Not Options.BlueScreen
End Sub

Enjoy,
Tony

Options.BlueScreen = Not Options.BlueScreen

Thanks so much to Tony and Michael! This simple macro was just what I needed.
I have saved it as a text file on my backup drive so I won't lose it again.
