Is there a way for excel to highlite the entire row and colum that the cursor
is in? I know that for example when my cursor is in box T 12 (coulm T and
Row 12) that the T is highlited and the 12 is higlited, but sometimes it is
still hard to see across the entire row. I was wondering if there is a way
excel can highlite the entire row and colum so that i can see easily what is
in the row and colum?
