Hi there,
when I try to change the font colour on my spreadsheet, I get
the following Dr Watson error.

Does anyone knmow what is causing this error? I have Google'd it to no avail.

I am on an NT workstation, using Excel 97.

Can anyone help?

Many thanks in advance.

First, I have no idea.

But excel (as well as most (all?) windows programs) uses the printer driver to
display what you see on the screen.

It might mean that your printer driver needs updating/replacing.

Can you change printers and see if it still happens. And if it does, maybe a
trip to your printer's web site to get a new/fresh printer driver would be in
order.

Another guess...

does it only happen with one font? Maybe your fonts are corrupted???

And does it happen in all worksheets in all workbooks? If no, then maybe
there's a problem with that worksheet (or workbook).

Maybe rebuilding that worksheet would eliminate the crash.
