I am not able to reproduce the problem.

You can check whether;
1. It happens with a particular FONT type or all fonts?
2. Only in Excel or with WORD etc too?

Try to make it BOLD first and then change the COLOR...

Seems to be a local corruption... first time I have heard of this type of
problem.
Try reinstalling Excel if it only happens in Excel and raise a ticket with MS.

Take a cell with text in it, change the colour to red and bold it, as soon as
it has been "bolded" it turns to blue. Only happens when I bold the text? It
happens with more than just the colour red?

This should not happen.

Can you pl. share the steps you execute to change the Font and then Bold it?

Hi there,

When using a spreadsheet I change the colour of the font so I can track what
has been done, or what needs to be done.

Only one issue...

When I change it to red and bold it, the colour changes to blue? And if I
change it to blue it goes red? And its just not red and blue I have these
issues with...

Help?
