Subtotals
Assuming you used Data - subtotals to insert your subtotals then you can use
Format - AutoFormat and select a format that you like... If you did not use Data - Subtotals then you can still try autoformats but there is no guarantee that it will work out correctly... -- HTH...

Subtotals
Thanks. I see some of the autoformat options separate the subtotals with
lines and italic print (like List 3...that may be the best option), but I don't see one that will shade the entire subtotal rows in my table. I tried to use a conditional format for a subtotal formula, but no luck. I really just need to show clear diferentiation between the other figures and subtotals in the budget column. Any other suggestions? "Jim Thomlinson" wrote: Assuming you used Data - subtotals to insert your subtotals then you can use Format - AutoFormat and select a format that you like...

Subtotals
You could do a pivot table off of your source data instead of subtotals. The
auto formats for pivot tables have some options which highlights subtotals. You can use Conditonal Formatting but you need to set the formatting for the entire subtotal area with Formula is =right(A2, 6) = " Total" -- HTH... Jim Thomlinson "Diane" wrote: Thanks.
