I created a document in excel with all different fill colors, and now when I
open it, all the color is gone, and I cannot use my fill, if I try to change
font color, it automatically goes back to black, yet, when I send the
document to someone else, they can see all the color fine???

See

Changes to fill color and fill pattern are not displayed in Office programs
