my cell shade does not appear on screen (except for Print Preview)

[Guest]

Excel 2003:
I attempt to shade a cell, or color a worksheet tab, using a few different
ways. No color appears on screen. But, the color shading does appear in the
print preview view, and I assume would also print out in color. I am a very
experienced user

Might be this problem........................

The Windows High Contrast setting.

The fill color, the fill pattern, or the line color of a WordArt or
AutoShape object in an Office document does not change
