There seems to be a default setting in Calc that turns the text in any colored cells to white. I can't find it. The weird thing is that I have three office PC's & this is the only one that's doing this.

What exactly is happening. It sounds like you have an Excel file with coloured cells that when you open it in OOo have white (default coloured ) cells. Is this correct

Are you saying that you have OOo installed on 3 PCs and only on one of them, is doing this?

What OS and version of OOo are you using?

What version of Excel?

Sorry, forgot to post that I figured it out. Under options, font color was listed as white. Changing to black worked. All fonts are black except the ones I had intentionally set to white (in black cells). I guess, since it was set to white, it made all text white unless it was in a white cell, then turned it black automatically.

Thanks-
