Highlight cell colour
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? |

Highlight cell colour
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.
