Hi all,

I am attempting to chnage the default colours used by excel for chart fills
and chart lines to something which looks better when printed, especially in
greyscale. I have attempted to amend them and save the amendments as the
default "book.xlt" template, but the old ones keep coming back. Can anyone
assist me? I am using excel xp/windows 2000 at work, excel2000/windows xp at
home (!)

TIA

Paul
