Well, I have discovered something...but it's not an Excel thing. The Display
settings matter. I have only one color choice for the overall system in order
for the highlighted cell to appear, and it's ugly. I did upgrade computers at
year end, so that may be what's behind it. Might not be an Excel problem at
all.
Thanks, Brymor...

Hello JR,
Don't get your hopes up, I'm just supporting your query. I have experienced
the same thing and am wondering if it's because of one of Microsoft's
wonderful automatin updates?????
I'm surprised you have'nt had any response at all yet since your posting of
17th January! So, let's hope somebody our there, [Microsoft?] can solve this
very annoying problem for us.
Kind regards,
Brymor.

Suddenly, the shading in the selected cell is gone. Now, when selecting a
group of cells for entry, you can't tell which is the active cell.

What happened..or more importantly, how do I fix it?
