Colors too dark....
I inherited a spreadsheet which is using dense, bright primary colors to
highlight cells. This is sucking my printer dry and causing headaches to read. The author must never have printed & have a really lousy monitor. Is there anyway to highlight the entire spreadsheet & change the transparency or brightness or something? -- BiT212 |

I found the "How to Modify Color Palettte" he
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/288412 but it's for "...what colors will be seen in previous versions"... so if I find someone using 2003, maybe that would do it? -- BiT212 "Bob I" wrote: No. BiT212 wrote: I inherited a spreadsheet which is using dense, bright primary colors to highlight cells.

That won't change the color of what is on the sheet you have.

You could adjust/set the colors and re-apply to groups of cells you
select, but it isn't going to work by selecting the whole sheet. BiT212 wrote: Oh. It's for the next sheet I create...? (Darn it, darn it, darn it....!) |
