Thanks for your reply. There is a way of doing it. After fiddling around with the system yesterday, I worked it out.
You have to be in Word, click on the Office Button, then select Word Options, then change colour scheme from Blue to Silver.
There is only an option for three colours, but silver is what I wanted. It changes it in Excel too.

Thanks
Regards

Word tip:

Controlling the appearance of the Styles task pane

Do you find it confusing when all the manual formatting changes you make to text in your document keep getting listed in your styles task pane?

You can change the settings in Word to stop this from happening.

1. Go to Tools - Options.
2. Select the Edit tab.
3. Remove the tick from the check box next to the 'Keep track of formatting' option.

Now the styles task pane should only list styles that are being used or are available for use in your documents.
