Cell color changes

Hi All,

This is really strange, I copied some worksheets from one workbook to
another and all the cells with a color format changed to a bit darker shade.
I suspect that one workbook has a different color scheme from the other
(I've no clue on how you can change the excel color scheme). How do I
change these color formats to the originals? The original colors may have
been defined by a macro, but I've deleted the original macros for
simplification reasons.

Any idea?

Thanks,

VT
 
Do you still have the original workbook?

If so, open it and the copied-to workbook.

With the copied-to workbook active go to Tools>Options>Colors and "Copy colors
from"

Select the original workbook and OK.

Any luck?

Hi Gord,

Thanks for the tip. I didn't copy the entire color palette, just a couple
of the changed colors. It worked perfectly.

Regards,
