An arrow may be a bit of an ask but try right-clicking the worksheet tab,
view code and then paste this in and see what happens. You should get the
search cell highlighted. In fact the active cell will always be highlighted.

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Static LastCell As Range
Target.Interior.ColorIndex = 3
LastCell.Interior.ColorIndex = xlColorIndexNone
Set LastCell = Target
End Sub
