Hi DeAnne,
You did not indicate what version your daughter has, if she has 2002
she would right click on the sheet tab OR on the format menu
choose sheet, then Tab Color.

If you don't have Excel 2002 there are alternatives to coloring the tabs
that make more sense to me than color.

Changing the Colors of Worksheet Tabs (#tabs)
