Default Conditional formatting rows

Hello all,

Can anyone tell me how to shade every other rows. There must be a way so
that one row is non shaded and the other is without me having to do them all
manually. If it is a formula, please provide it : i go nutts doing those.

Thank you so much, happy new year!

Hi,

Use this in conditional formatting:

=MOD(ROW(),2)=1 or =MOD(ROW(),2)=0 depending on which row you want
formatted, 1 for odd numbered rows and 0 for even numbered.

Thanks to both of you. Still I get an error message saying that there is a
error in the formula and it pinpoints the ,2 in the formula. Any idea
what goes wrong? Thanks again

Lots of non-USA users have a list separator of ; (semicolon) instead of a ,
(comma).

You may want to try that.
