All of the Microsoft Office 2007 applications have the option to change the color scheme of the application. The default color scheme is light blue and if you’re like me and like a bit of variation in your life from time time, then dive in and give it a go. On a serious note - screen aesthetics - layout and colour are a big subject, covered all over the web. If you spend 8 hours looking at a screen - you may as well look at a screen you actually get on with.

Business PowerPoint takes a look below at how to change it…

To change the color scheme, click on the Office button on the top left hand corner.

Click the PowerPoint Options and highlight the Popular tab. Here you can find the color schemes.

Note that if you change the scheme for PowerPoint 2007, it will also change in Excel 2007 and Word 2007 too.

This is how the different colours look:

Silver scheme

Black scheme
