Automatic color setting in Excel
 
Somehow the automatic color is a light blue instead of black. Any ideas how
this happen or how to fix it?

If its the grid lines, click ToolsOptionsView?Gridlines Colours and set it
to black
If its the text click FormatStyleNormalModify and select black

Appreciate the help, however that didn't fix it. I have two computers, load
an Excel spread sheet on one the text is black and it prints black. Load the
same sheet on the 2nd computer the text is light blue and prints light blue.
Both are set automatic in the font color winsow. I'm lost.....

I've just come across something that may be the cause of your problem, but
this would apply to all your spreadsheets not just one.

Right click on any spare part of the desktop
click Properties
click the Appearance tab
click Advance
from Item drop down list click window
make sure the font colour is black

Thanks for the help, I was using a theme changer and the theme chaged the
default color to blue. Changed the theme and the automatic color is back to
black....
