=MOD(ROW(),5)=2

Note: if you insert rows above row 2 you will get no banding in those rows.

This works fine but is there a way to take the heading out of the spacing. I
tried deleting/adding but it seems to go to top no matter where I select. TIA

Select all the cells, use Format/Conditional Formatting, change "Cell Value

Click the format button, select the light gray you want, click OK all the
way out.

I want to fill my Excel address book with a light gray color every fifth
row
and keep spacing after I add/delete entries. Is this possible? TIA
