I can change font colour but how do I change the background colour of a
macro button in excel 2003

Just use the ControlsToolbox to make the button. Right-click. View
Properties and set the background color.

There is no real problem here. It is simply a matter of deleting the button
whose background color cannot be changed and replacing it with a button or
button-like object whose background color can be changed.

You can use:

1. a Controls button
2. a picture
3. an AutoShape
4. etc.

Pick whatever you like.
