How do I make background color show up in my document instead of .

[Guest]

I'm trying to create an Excel document and on this specific computer, what I
see and what I print are not the same. Print Preview shows me exactly how I
want it, when I actually work on the document it doesn't. I downloaded some
templates for Budgeting and I like how the tabs are colored in Blue and the
text in white, but when I'm working on the document, the boxes show up as
blank, but when I print preview they're all there.

If this is a problem with all Excel files with coloured cells, the Windows OS
high contrast setting may be turned on. There is information in the
following MSKB article:

OFF: Changes to Fill Color and Fill Pattern Are Not Displayed
