Fill color in Excell 2003 does not work?

[Mike Golfer]

I have upgraded from Excell 2000 to 2003. I also have purchased a Compaq
nx9600 with a 17" wide screen display. For some reason the "Fill Color"
formating/shading tool will not work. Nor will changing the text color.
Any suggestions to fix problem?

Hi Mike,

See MSKB article # 320531:

'Changes to the fill color and the fill pattern are not displayed in Office
programs'
