Colour picker
 

When I go to Format cell to change the color, I can only pick from the
colours there and not define my own colour using the picker. Is there
any way of doing this?

Thanks
J

Think you can modify the color palette via:
Tools Options Color tab Modify
(there's even a "Reset" button to get back the defaults)
The modified palette will then be available for use ..

XL can only display the 56 colors of the color palette at any one time.
A color in the color palette can be changed
(Tools/Options/Colors/Modify), so you can then pick it as one of the 56.
