Selecting mutliple ranges
 
When I select multiple ranges of cells in Excel 2007, the cells do not
highlight in blue/light gray as in past versions of Excel. I can tell the
cells are selected because the column/row letters/numbers are selected, but I
can't tell just by looking at the cells. Is this an option that I somehow
selected by mistake? Thanks!

Hi Scott

No, you are not missing anything.
This is a feature of XL2007 that many have complained about.

The highlighting works on my Excel 2007. Maybe you have some other setting
changed? Or a video driver problem?

There are some people in my office that it works just fine for, and some
people (me) that it doesn't work for. We're all running Dell computers with
XP.

That's weird.

Some people have reported that this is controlled by the Windows Display
property, but I cannot confirm that.
