Sort / Filter Column Header Arrows Not Visible

The sort and filter arrows which used to be visible in tables and queries are
now not visible. I can click on the right end of the field name and the Sort
/ Filter menu that displays when you click the arrow will appear. However, I
cannot see which columns are sorted or filtered.

I have tried everything I can think of--Access Options, Fonts, Gridlines,
Shading, Table Properties, and even downloaded SP2 for Office 2007. I have
not reloaded Access, yet.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi DeeH,
when you sort or filter a table or query, in A2007 there is a small filter
icon at the right side of the column head. If the column is narrow, the icon
is almost hidden. Drag the column header to make the column wider and look
for the filter icon.
