The fill color, the fill pattern, or the line color of a WordArt or

i have color formatting in some excel cells (ie format paint to change color
of cells) and I can view the color in "print view" and it prints with color,
but I can't view the color on screen. What's up? I had the same issue with
powerpoint, but in powerpoint under "view" options I was able to select
color, whereas black and white seemed to be previously selected.
help!
thanks
