Default Selection Shading gone from 07' ???

You know how in Excel 2003 when you selected multiple cells or rows it would
highlight or shade the selcetions so you could see what you have selected?
Does anyone know how to make that come back in 07'? I am not talking about
filling the selections with colors, just the "shading or highlighting" of the
cells before you change an attribute. I like to see what I am about to change
before I do it. My 07' has no shadin of any kind. Thanks so much if you have
any helpful info.

Default Selection Shading gone from 07' ???

The selection shading in Excel 2007 is a *very very* light shade of blue.
There have been *many* complaints about this being very difficult to see and
I'm among those that have this difficulty.

There is no fix for this other than trying to adjust the display of your
monitor. (lightness/darkness, contrast, etc).

I've also seen one other report where the poster said they have *no shading
at all*.
