Hi all, I've recently been working on developing a fairly complex workbook (at least by my standards) that involves the use of a number of user forms to enter and edit data. I created the workbook in Excel 2010 on my now four year old Windows XP netbook. On the netbook the user forms display fine but when I have opened the book on the PC of a colleagues and when another colleague has opened it the user forms have elements which are unreadable (and ugly) due to random black boxes covering some elements. I'm not sure what Windows version the first PC was on bt the second was Windows 7.

Is this a known problem? If so, is there a work around to resolve it?

Thanks,
Jonathan
