excel colour codes
 

You must have set the high contrast (accessibility) option

Q320531 -- OFF: Changes to Fill Color and Fill Pattern Are Not Displayed,
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=320531
Incorrect/missing colors may occur with use of High Contrast under Display tab of Accessibility Options. Colors don't show on
monitor however, you may be able to see the changes in print preview and on a printed page.
