I'm looking for ways to customize the GUI on excel2007, at present if i
highlight an array of cells the area i highlight is a very pale almost white
yellow. If i then ctrl+drag select a different area of cells it is almost
impossible to see what areas i am highlighting and the solid black boundry of
the selected areas disappears.

Is there a way of changing the colours used by the GUI for such things?

NOTE i'm not asking "how do i change the colour of the cells?" i'm asking
about GUI setup in excel?

The only colour based options i can see on the excel options is for gridline
colours =s surely there is more options than that!!
