Don't give up, you can do this in 2007!

Select the cell(s) and right click and choose Format Cells, then choose
Fill, Fill Effects. Pick a Color 1 and a Color 2, try the Vertical style and
see if you like that. This is actually a gradient fill but it does produce
two colors for the fill, and a mix as they merge.

Does anyone know how to format 2 colors in the same cell? Does Excell 2007
have this feature (I didn't find in 2003)? Note, it is not conditional
formatting, but stripes. And it is not pattern either! I want "large" stripes
or just two band color, with continued text crossing both colors...
