Setting Cell Background and Text Colors


Overview

You can change the background and text colors of a cell, a column, a row, a block of cells, or the entire sheet.

Note: You cannot change the background color of the drop-down list portion of a combo box cell. The background color of the drop-down list portion of a combo box cell is always white.

By default, the background color of a cell covers the right and bottom sides of the cell's grid lines. You can specify that control displays the complete grid lines instead, or that the color covers all the grid lines. For more information, see Customizing Grid Lines.

If you want to specify the background and text colors of selected cells, see Specifying the Colors of Selected Cells. If you want to specify the background and text colors for button cells, see Setting Background and Text Colors of Button Cells. If you want to specify the background and text colors for locked cells, see Setting Background and Text Colors for Locked Cells. If you want to specify the background color for a static text cell that displays a three-dimensional appearance, see Creating and Customizing a Static Text Cell.
