conditional formating
 

Hi there

I am created a file to keep track of marks. I want every other line to have
the back ground fill in. Sometimes students names will be added or deleted.
I don't want to have to change the format for each line when a student is
added or deleted. Is there a way to do this?

Thank-you!
