Default Hiding cells based on the value in another cell

Hi,

I am using Excel 2007. I have created a worksheet where I would like to be
able to "hide" a group of cells based on the value of another cell.

I can do what I want by inserting a shape (rectangle) and giving it a white
background and a white line color. As I have chosen not to show gridlines on
my worksheet, this rectangle effectively hides the cells that are behind it.

I can write code to control the visibility of this rectangle based on the
value in a particular cell. I imagine that there is a way I can get this
code to run anytime the value in this cell changes. I am pretty sure that I
can do what I want.....but...

I just wanted ask if there is a better way to do this sort of thing? If
anyone has any recommendations, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance,
Paul
