Default highlight all cells which use SUMPRODUCT in their formulas....

That's nice Bob, but more difficult for me to understand......and besides,
where I come from in the hills of Virginia, "shorter" is not usually
considered "better", if you know what I mean.....<G

Just for fun, even shorter

Sub ShowSUMPRODUCTs()
Dim cell As Range

For Each cell In ActiveSheet.UsedRange.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeFormu las)
cell.Interior.ColorIndex = -(cell.Formula Like "*SUMPRODUCT*") * 38
Next cell

End Sub

I have a large spreadsheet, comprising a range of about 100000

individual
cells, a number of which cells are running various flavors of

SUMPRODUCT
calculations. Is there a macro I can write which would scan all the
cells'
formulas and highlight those cells whose formulas contain SUMPRODUCT?
