worksheet background color

I would like to format the individual worksheets with a color for the sheet
itself. Is this possible in 2002? thanks for you help and advice

Hi!

Do you mean you want to color the sheet tabs?

Right click the sheet tab, select Tab Color.

There is a way round this.
In paint, create a picture that is a single colour by using the fill tool. Save this
Then format > Sheet > Background and choose your newly created file

Then format|cells|Pattern tab|
and choose a nice fill color
