Is there a way to get rid of the orange color when working in excel.
The orange shows up to indicate what Column and row you are in... but it is
very annoying...

That color is determined by your Windows Theme.

Right-click on Desktop and select Properties.

Follow your nose from there.

I personally use the Windows Classic because I detest the Windows XP themes.
