I feel wery stupid asking this, but just so that everything i clear. If I only want a solid background color with visible text/data on top of this background color, then I only have to do this:
anyCellStyle.setFillBackgroundColor(HSSFCellStyle.GREEN); This creates a black background no matter wich color I choose. / marcus _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp.
