Here's something I've never seen.

User blocks out an area, sets the background color, but it doesn't show up
on the spreadsheet.
It does show on the 'Print Preview' and it prints properly (with colors).

Any ideas? Help appreciated.

Thanks,
Doug Sanders

The cells have conditional formatting that overrides the regular format
of the cells. ed

Expand please

I've never had problems with excel before and my expertise is in Access.

Thanks,
Doug
