How can I change the font color in Office 2007 in a high contrast theme?
I have a vision impaired user that has a custom high contrast theme set up for them. The theme has a white background and all fonts show up as they normally would. When I try and change the font color in Excel and Outlook 2007 it does not seem to change. It shows up as changed when the email is sent or in a print preview, but not when you are looking at the document. I have gotten this to work in the past, but I cannot remember what I did. The computer is using Windows 7 Pro. Any suggestions?
Thanks guys!

Hi John,
The same problem happens when I change to a generic Windows 7 high contrast theme. It is my understanding that sometimes viewing font colors in Office in high contrast themes can be problematic , but like I mentioned I have been able to view the color change in the past. This is a very unique situation. Would upgrading the version of Office potentially fix this?

@SupermanTB - Thanks and I was happy to help.
Right Click on the Windows 7 desktop, choose Personalization, and then see the selection of High Contrast Themes. I see 4 in total. Pick the one that suites you best.
