Default In Excel, colors don't appear until I do a print preview

In Excel, when I change the color of the box or the print, there is no change
reflected on the screen. If I do a print preview however the colors are
there.

Thanks Bernard. One thing I don't do is check these references every time

I will update my reference, but I wish they wouldn't.

You'd think that MS would redirect to the new KB article.
