Does anoyone know why the following occur, and if I can fix them?

1) On starting Excel, either on a stand-alone launch or a document open, it
automatically switches to the background and the last program used is
brought forward.  If I'm starting it, I'd rather like to use it.

2) If I choose show baloons, and switch out of Excel, the new menu item is,
as it should be, hide baloons.  But back in Excel, even after switching
out, checking it, and coming back, it still says show baloons.  Minor, but
annoying.  (Not that I would dream of using baloon help...   :)

3) Dialogs with the "STOP" icon which appear have the icon in black and
white.  All other programs notice the cicn I have designed...what's up,
Excel?  With 24-bit color, I'd like to be able to use it...

System:
Mac IIfx running 7.0.1 with Tuneup 1.1.1
20MB RAM (32-bit addressing is ON)

Why does Microsoft insist on being non-standard and doing things its way.
I tried to Command-B (bold) some text and almost wiped it out.  Grumble.

Thanks for any help!
