Fill color?

When I choose the "fill color" button on a spreadsheet I
don't see the color on my screen. If I go to print
preview, it shows on the printed form. What's the deal
here? Is there some way to make the color visible on the
screen. Font colors work fine.

Incorrect/missing colors may occur with use of High Contrast under Display tab
of Accessibility Options (Control Panel). Colors don't show on monitor; however,
you may be able to see the changes in print preview and on a printed page.
