I am doing a class assignment for a computer class and the book we use is written for Windows. I have been able to do everything up until now. It is asking me to change the Heading styles and Accent styles.. I can not find where these options are in Mac... The choices on Windows are Heading1, Heading2, etc... and also 20% Accent, 40% Accent etc. Reply fast! Thanks

These are new Predefined theme styles first introduced with WinXL07, and
they were not brought over to MacXL08.

There's nothing particularly magic about them - you can define your own
styles to match.

BTW: "Reply fast!" is not a particular motivator for people answering
questions here. We're volunteers, doing this in our spare time.

As John said, built-in Heading Styles & Themed Cell Styles do not exist in
Mac Excel 2008. They are currently available only in PC Excel 2007. I don't
know what you're "looking for" but that's the only accurate answer to your
question. We can't tell you how to find something that just isn't there.

I know.

I think you're looking for things that don't exist in XL08.

They're not there. They will never be there.


However, if I'm wrong, it would be helpful if you'd give more clues on
what you *are* looking for.
