Some people have seen an improvement by changing contrast in their monitor
settings.

If you want a permanent fix for the selected cells coloring in Excel 2007
here is a Registry hack.

StartRun regededit.exe

Drill down to

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\E xcel\Options

Right-click on Options6 and ModifyDecimal........change the 32 to 16

When you select multiple cells all but the active cell will be black.

In Excel 2007, when selecting different cells they are highlighted a light
gray. How do I change that to a darker colour so that the selected cells are
easier to see?
