Excel - highlight colour of cell not showing except on preview

[Guest]

I cannot see that I have highlighted particular cells while busy on a
worksheet. The colour is only shown when I use the print preview facility or
when i print the sheet.
What do I have to change in order to see my highlighted cell/s

If this is a problem with all Excel 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
