Not too sure what you mean by Highlight but here goes nothin... Grab 2 option
buttons from the Control Toolbox (not the forms toolbar) and place then on a
sheet. Right click on the sheet tab and slect view code. Now add the
following code...

Private Sub OptionButton1_Click()
Range("A1:A10").Interior.ColorIndex = 36
Range("B1:B10").Interior.ColorIndex = 0
End Sub

Private Sub OptionButton2_Click()
Range("B1:B10").Interior.ColorIndex = 36
Range("A1:A10").Interior.ColorIndex = 0
End Sub

--
HTH...
