Yep, you're right, Bob. I started to think about that
after I posted and realized that I didn't have to loop
through every cell of every row, only those cells in col.
A. I had "row" on the brain.

Thanks.

Hi Jason,

Your code has an built-in redundancy, in that in goes

through each cell in
the range and setting the colour of that whole row if it

meets the test
criteria. But as you set your range to the whole rows,

the loop iterates
through each cell in the range, A2, B2, C2, etc. Thus A2

is tested and the
row is coloured, B2 is tested and the same row is

coloured, C2 is tested and
the same row is coloured, etc.

This can be circumvented by changing

Set colorRng = Range("2:" & iLastRow)

to

Set colorRng = Range("A2:A" & iLastRow)


Regards

Bob

Try:

Sub ColorRows()

Dim iLastRow As Long
Dim colorRng As Range
Dim cell As Range

Application.ScreenUpdating = False
iLastRow = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
Set colorRng = Range("2:" & iLastRow)
For Each cell In colorRng
With cell
If .Row Mod 2 = 0 Then
.EntireRow.Interior.ColorIndex = 3 'Red
'Blue=5,Green=10,Yellow=6
End If
End With
Next
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

I have worksheets with several hundred rows and want

to
record a macro that
will highlight every other row, starting at row 2,

until
the end. I can
record a macro to highlight several rows but how can I

repeat until the end
of the worksheet?
