Colors in an Excel sheet do not show up when I preview it in Dropbox

[Camilleforestier]

Hi everybody,

I created an Excel sheet with colors (green & red for yeses and nos) but when I upload my file on dropbox the colors do not appear anymore once in the dropbox. Does anybody know what I should do please?

Thank you

Camille

Welcome to the Dropbox Community, @Camilleforestier!

Are you seeing this behavior when previewing the file on dropbox.com? Or in your Dropbox mobile app?

If the file is downloaded to your device and opened with the Excel app locally, do the colors show up?

Keep me posted.

I work on Mac and when my Excel is open on my Mac I have all the colors. 

Once I upload it still from my Mac to Dropbox, the file is then on Dropbox but without colors...

Always using Dropbox from my Mac.

Thanks for your help

Thanks for the update, Camille!

So, to upload the file to your Dropbox, are you simply moving it to your local Dropbox folder?

Or are you using a browser?

If you preview the file on dropbox.com, do you see the colors?
