You can change the theme in Office by clicking File > Account page in any Office product with the exception of Outlook. In Outlook, Click File > Office Account to change the theme.

There are three themes available in Office 2013:

White - Default

Light Gray

Dark Gray

    Good day,

    I want to enable (Error message when you try to save a document in Word 2010: "Word cannot save this file because it is already open elsewhere")when the document is opened by another user.

    This document is shared between 12 users through Skydrive. I want only one user to edit the document at a time.

    Beauty is only skin deep.

    Ugly goes to the bones

    (Quote from Murphy's law)

     

    Would be so simple to create a skin and make it look better.  I'm susprises there is not ANY 3rd-party app or skin to do so.

    Found a couple, but I would not trust them. I am waiting for more reputable companies.

    Not sure if it will work.

    When are you going to give us back the black 2010 theme???????? I cannot even begin to express how disappointed I am with Microsoft. I Have even resorted to using the black theme on my Touchdown/Nitrodesk Android client, Android cell phone to manage my email because I absolute cannot stand looking at the horrible themes on my Office 2013 laptop. This is completely and utterly ridiculous!!!!!!!!! WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO FIX IT????????? It is your problem!!!!!!!!!! When?????????

    My next step is to permanently convert to Apple!

    I have already decided  to never own another Microsoft OS cell phone. My Samsung Galaxy Note II/Android is amazing compared to the Microsoft OS cell phones I struggled with for the last 10 years.

    How many customers can you afford to lose? You better start tuning in to your customers requests or you might as well begin planning to face your demise!

    Are you getting it yet? You seem to be pretty slow on the uptake!

    Please add one more to those disappointed with the themes limitation. The background colors are bland and washed out; the contrast colors are glaring, making viewing hard on the eyes (particularly for middle-aged eyes like mine) and not well-suited for those of us who use color differences in applications as tools in managing our application productivity.

    Please add more themes as quickly as possible; the existing themes will definitely impact the user experience for our rollout (40,000+ users) to our enterprise. I anticipate we will have a flood of calls and more than one demand to revert people to Office 2010.
