I just installed several copies of Office 2007 Plus on our work network. The version I have is a Volume License copy and on every other computer I have tried the ribbon is it's normal default blue theme. On this one particullar system a Dell Inspiron 6400, running XP SP2 the ribbon is grey and looks somewhat distored. The resolution is 1024x768 16bit. I have done the following: Changed the resolution to 32 bit mode Ran Adawarev (test results were clean) Ran Anti Virus scan with the latest updates (test results were clean) Reinstalled the Video Driver I can't seem to find a solution for this. Any advise would help at this point. Thanks
Any chance that one has been changed, for some reason, to the Silver theme? In Excel you can get to it thru Office Button | Edit Excel Options | on the popular tab look for Color Scheme. -- -Ben- Ben M.
