Default how do I use conditional formatting for alternating cell shading?

I need to alternate cell shading based on the row number(even, odd). I need
to know how to do this using the MOD with the Row function as argument. I am
using Excel in Office XP version 2002.

Thanks

Hi!

If you want to shade the odd rows:

=MOD(ROW(),2)=1

If you want to shade the even rows:

=MOD(ROW(),2)=0
