From: Charlene on 10 May 2010 14:53 In Excel 2007, when selecting different cells they are highlighted a light gray. How do I change that to a darker colour so that the selected cells are easier to see?
From: Gord Dibben on 10 May 2010 15:58 Some people have seen an improvement by changing contrast in their monitor settings. If you want a permanent fix for the selected cells coloring in Excel 2007 here is a Registry hack. Start>Run regededit.exe Drill down to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Excel\Options Right-click on Options6 and Modify>Decimal........change the 32 to 16 When you select multiple cells all but the active cell will be black.
