Is there a way to have the current field box in excel to be shadowed as it
moves so it is easier to see were you are in a spreadsheet. I do not like
the column / row highlight nor do I want to highlight each field.

You may want to try Chip Pearson's utility:

Be aware that with this (and most macros), you lose the ability to do Edit|Undo.

Not any native Excel setting. This would require event code in VBA.

Chip Pearson's ROWLINER add-in does what you want.
