Have you changed your printer setting? I had that problem when the
selected printer did not support color. When I installed a driver for a
color printer, I could then see color on the screen.

Subject: [mso] COLOURS NOT SHOWING IN EXCEL, POWERPOINT AND WORD

I am running MS Office XP Pro.  This problem seems to have developed 
recently on my PC: when I highlight a cell in Excel or change the font 
colour in Word or Powerpoint, the characters still look black on the
screen. 
  The only way to see the actual colours is in Print Preview.  Is there
some 
setting I need to change in the software or on my PC display?

Another query concerns Microsoft Internet Explorer font size.  This
seems to 
vary with different sites I visit.  Can I set a default size?  Even when
I 
reduce the font size using View/Text size, the font is still so large it
is 
impossible to see more than a few characters without scrolling up/down
or 
side to side.

All tips and help appreciated.

Ron
