I apologize if this is a duplicate post, not sure what happened to the post I
was working on.

I have a spreadsheet with a column of numbers... the rest of the data is
text or dates. What I am trying to do is shade the row that contains an even
number in the column that contains the numbers.

I've been able to shade the cell that contains the even number by choosing
only the column with the numbers, and using the following in the conditional
format:
=MOD($A1,2)=0
However, when I try to select all and apply the exact same formula (thinking
it would only look at column A)... the entire spreadsheet gets shaded.

I'm very new to conditional formatting - any ideas?

Thanks!
