view colors in open worksheet

[Guest]

i was using office 2000, switched to 2003. in my old worksheets where i used
different colors for the text or data in the cells, i was able to see the
different colors. now, i can't see those colors except in print preview.
how can i view them in my worksheet.

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

Did you try the proposed solution?

Turn off the High Contrast setting and then post back if still having a problem.
