Default customize seelected cell border

I know this is stupid and probably an old question, BUT....

I recently downloaded the venerable Checkbook2 from the Joe Barta website:
http://www.pagetutor.com/checkbook/

On my machine running Excel 2000 on Vista Home the selected cell has a red
border.
For my old eyes it would be a great boon if I could have this on all my
spreadsheets.
How is this done? I can't find any VBA anywhere in the workbook, nor can I
identify
the method in the VBScript that opens from the sheet.

Would someone please help?

Mike

Default customize seelected cell border

It is the contrasting colour of the Cell Borders. Change the border colour
and the selection colour will change.
