Color Scheme
Hi all,
I've just installed (and reinstalled) Office 2007 and it seems to installed correctly but I have no color scheme - all toolbars show up in black/white. Changing the scheme color in preferences does not affect it. Office has been successfully installed on two other computers. Help is appreciated! Thanks! |

Color Scheme
Under your display properties (control panel) do you have it set for high
contrast? -- Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact.

Office 2007 overrides your colour scheme for the office apps. MS in its infinite wisdom has decided that it knows what colours everyone in the world wants and will ignore what you have set up in Windows. The really great feature is that the difference between active and inactive windows is negligible so by clicking on the X you can easily close the wrong window :-P |

Color Scheme
Thank you! All my colors came back once I changed it to Classic View instead
of Windows XP style. How goofy. Thanks for your help! "Gilgamesh" wrote: "Sylvester" wrote in message ...
