Cell shading won't show on screen
 

Has anyone ever seen this? My computer at work opens excel from the lan. The application is not on the hard drive

When you try to apply color or a pattern to a cell, the cell remains white. The color shows up in print preview and will print correctly but will not show up on the screen

All other computers open the same excel application and work fine

Any ideas

The high contrast setting may be turned on. There's information in the
following MSKB article:

OFF: Changes to Fill Colour and Fill Pattern Are Not Displayed
