Highlighted cells

[E Watson]

In Excel for Mac, I am unable to tell which cell is highlighted. The
outline of the cell does not stand out from the page. Is there a way
to make that darker?

This is driving me crazy, please help.

XL takes its highlight color from the system highlight settings:
Appearance control panel, or System Preferences/Appearance.

After changing the highlight color, you'll need to close, then
reopen XL to see the change.
