Change highlight cell color
anyone know how to change the way that the current cell is highlighted?
Currently a white border is displayed around the cell. However, I am trying to find an alternative way of highlighting the cell for a partially sighted colleague. A different color for the current cell would be good, or a big thick border in a contrasting color would do. Any ideas? |

Change highlight cell color
Don
This is really useful. Tried it and liked it. But..... is there any way to make the highlighted text even larger? The standard font size on the spreadsheet is 11pt. So I tried adding ".Size = 16" to your macro, but nothing seems to happen "Don Guillett" wrote: To use, right click sheet tabview codecopy/paste thisSAVEtry it -- Don Guillett SalesAid Software "Don Guillett" wrote in message ...
