Grouped worksheets do not show up

[Guest]

Hi

I'm running Excel 2000 and a friend Excel 2003 (both on Windows XP). When we group worksheets, the grouped tabs don't change color so it is really diffilcut to see which are grouped and which are not. I know you can change the tab colors on Excel 2003 (my friend is trying that to see if it helps) but is there a way to better show what worksheets are grouped. The first one is always bold (as when you click on any worksheet) but it'd be better if they all went bold. When I had Excel 2000 on a W98 machine, the background colour of all worksheet tabs was grey and when clicked on would switch to white so when grouped, the grouped tabs become white

Help anyone?

I use xl2002 and it shows the tabs of grouped sheets as black text on white
background. If I changed the tab color (added in xl2002), then the color
appears as almost an underscore for those grouped sheets (just like the
activesheet when only one is active).

My first guess is that something went wrong with the grouping. Do you see
"[Group]" in the title bar for that window?

If no, then try it again.

If yes, then (just a silly guess...) Did you or your friend change any of the
window display settings that could have screwed up the display?

And one worse guess: Did you change the tab color to white? That makes it
difficult, too.
