Excel dafault color palette

[R Ruppe]

How can I PERMANENTLY change the colors in the default
color palette in my Excel workbooks?

Currently, when I change a color in a workbook, the color
reverts back to the old color when I close and re-open the
workbook, even when I save the file before closing.

Hi!

I don't seem to have this problem (XL2003, but I'm sure 97 and 200
were the same)

I open a new workbook. Change a colour (Tool > Options > Color etc)
I save the workbook.
I reload the same workbook and it still has the changed colour.

Moreover, if I now open another workbook and Tools> Options> Color an
check the box for "Copy colors from" and select the changed file, the
the new worksheet gets permanently changed colours.

Are these the same things you are doing?
