I'm using word and excel 2003. I have a word document that contains several tables linked to an excel workbook. In some cells the text is coloured. The tables look fine on the screen but when I print the document out on colour printer (HP LJ5500) the text in all the tables comes out as black. This only occurs if the table data is linked; if the data is pasted without linking it the colour reproduces fine! Any ideas?
Resolved! I've got two printers: a B&W and the colour. I set the default windows printer to the colour instead of B&W and lo, I had colour tables.
