Thanks, this was helpful. Using windows color options I was able to
change
the "window" to an off-white which allows the inactive cells to be viewed.

The active cell is the cell that *is not highlighted*.

In Excel 2007 the shade used to define the selected range is way to light
and difficult to see (especially for those of us that are "vision
challenged"!). However, that light pastel color sure is purtty, ain't it?

If you select the range A1:C1 starting from cell A1, cell A1 is not
highlighted but B1 and C1 are. Cell A1 is the active cell.

Using Excel 2007 when selecting a range of cells for data input the
active
cell is never highlighted. Can't tell which cell is active. Is there
a
setting to indicate the active cell?
