--- Comment #2 from marc marcdunord@gmail.com 2013-08-01 12:24:37 CDT --- a) it's excel 2003
b) in win XP, to choose system-wide color scheme with dark background and bright characters one needs to:
Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
Double-click Display, and then click the Appearance tab.
In the Scheme box, click the color "black contrast".
this makes excel 2003 run with inverted colors...
