If this is a problem with all files with coloured cells, the Windows OS high
contrast setting may be turned on. There is information in the
following MSKB article:

OFF: Changes to Fill Color and Fill Pattern Are Not Displayed

Thx for your answer
Gord Dibben

but I read this article and I see
The information in this article applies to:

* Microsoft Excel 2000
* Microsoft Excel 2002
* Microsoft PowerPoint 2002
* Microsoft Publisher 2002
* Microsoft Word 2002
* Microsoft PowerPoint 2000
* Microsoft Publisher 2000
* Microsoft Word 2000

I use Excel 2003 ! but I'll try to turn off the high contrast setting


Thx again and I'll be back (as Schwarzy) if it doesn't work :

MS don't seem to be real quick in updating a lot of these KBs, which probably
adds a lot of un-necessary confusion for some. :-(
