Excel 2007: How to change fill color in Theme Colors

D

David Lipetz

I have just converted to Excel 2007 from Excel 2003 and am still getting
used to all the changes.

In Excel 2003, one of the standard fill colors was Light Yellow and I have
used it in thousands of spreadsheets. Excel 2007 does not have Light Yellow
in the standard Theme Colors list. I can select it from Custom Colors but do
not want to do that every time or rely on picking it from Recent Colors. In
Excel 2003, you could go to Tools/Options and change the colors that were
presented in the dropdown fill color box. Can this be done in Excel 2007?

Thanks in advance,
David

Wow. This is the longest any of my posts to this newsgroup have gone
unanswered.

Is there no way to customize the color palette in Excel 2007?

I Agree with David - Why did the standard color palette change in Excel
2007? How can we customize it?
