CELL REFERENCES
 

When I first installed Office 2003 Professional, the Excel cell references
that tell you which cell you are in (i.e. 1,2,3,4 on the extreme left of the
screen and A,B,C,D at the top) used to be bright orange so that it was very
easy to see which cell you were in. For some odd reason, they turned a pale
blue color and now it is much more difficult to see. Is there a setting that
I can change to make the cell indicators orange again so that I can see what
I'm doing?

I know this doesn't seem like a big issue, but with my awful vision it's
hard to for me see things. It's even worse since I'm in college and have to
use excel all the time. Pleas help!!

You also might want to go to Windows Start Menu=Settings=control panel
=accessibility options and go to the display tab. Is High Contrast checked?
If not, you might want to check it and see if that helps. Also, there are a
number of different color schemes in the dropdown that you might want to look
at.
