Default How do you change the "cursor outlining" around the box in Excel

I'd like to have the box I'm working in a little more visable, in case I get
interrupted and need to find my place quickly. The box is purple in the left
column (the A,B,C side), but I don't usually look clear over there...until
I'm frustrated enough to remember to look there. I'm an old Lotus 123 user
and the color was grey or some other color, so you'd know which cell you were
working in.

Is there a way to customize this? I hope so!!!

As I read thru the instructions, it says that "undo" will be disabled if I do
this. As I use this undo feature extensively...I am not willing to give it
up. I also am using Excel 2003 - in case the VBA code problem would not be an
issue there.

Thank you for your prompt and helpful reply!
