[QUOTE="D'artagnan, post: 1813747, member: 77772"] I'm not sure if this is an App problem or an OS problem. Mods please relocate if needed. Late 2012 27" iMac Mojave 10.14.2 Excel for Mac 16.21.1 I have been using my Mac OS in Dark mode. I like this version, but it is causing a problem in Excel. When I enter or edit a formula in Excel, it appears in the formula bar, just above the rows and columns of the spreadsheet. As you enter various cell addresses, the cells are shaded in different colors in the spreadsheet, and the cell references in the formula bar are shaded to match. The problem is the colors used for some of the cell references are practically invisible against the dark gray of the formula bar when the Mac is in Dark mode. I really don't want to have to switch back to light mode when using excel, so I hope someone knows how I can switch the formula bar from dark grey to white in Excel. Thanks, Jeff [/QUOTE]
