Highlighting The Active Cell After A Highlight
Nov 30, 2006
I have a cover sheet to a workbook that holds hyperlinks to its relevent page. Several of the hyperlinks link to the same page but different relevant cells. However it is not overly clear which cell is active when you click the hyperlink. What I would like is for the active cell to be highlighted on the page. EG hyperlink 1 links to page 1 cell A2 & hyperlink 2 links to page 1 cell B6 - I would like A2 to be highlighted when accessed by hyperlink 1 & B6 highlighted when accessed by hyperlink 2.

Is it possible to click on a cell in column C, and have the wishlist below happen:
That active cell's row is hightlighted.
Any cell in that column that has the same value as active cell is also highlighted.
Plus, any cell in another sheet that has that value it's row is highlighted too.
Example:
I click on C5 in Sheet 2 its value is 45000789 it row is highlighted, this value also appears in C3 in the same sheet, so it's row is highlighted as well. Plus, in sheet 1 in C10 this value appears and it's row is highlighted as well. When any of the values are clicked again the highlight is removed from all parties.

I am trying to create a VBA code that will automatically highlight the row of an Excel table (2007) of the active cell. So far I have this:
Code:
If Not Intersect(ActiveCell, Range("Table_Name")) Is Nothing Then
Range("A" & Target.Row & ":EJ" & Target.Row).Interior.Color = 10092543
End If
Where the columns A and EJ represent the size of the table. But I would like to automate the column choices so that if the table has columns added or removed, the code still works. Is there a way to just reference a row of a table?

whenever the active cell is within a given range, highlight the cell on the same row in column S (by changing its interior colour). This should occur each time the active cell is changed, whether by cursor keys or mouse. The effect would be similar to the row and column highlights at left and top of the worksheet.
This action should be restricted to one sheet in the workbook.
It's for Excel 2003.

Is it possible to have a specified shading (say 50%) applied to all rows except the currently picked row and the header rows to allow a user to focus on inputting across the row? I'd use this in conjunction with " Move Selection After Enter" to "Right" so the user would stay on the same row. I've tried the Help function, but can't find anything.

When looking at a spreadsheet with many columns, it would be nice of the row of the cell I have selected would remain highlighted in yellow, so that as I scroll across rows it's easy to view the data associated with the selected cell. Of course, if I select another cell, I would want the highlighting to change to THAT row. I'm guessing this would have to be in a this.workbook change event.

When I open any spreadsheet (new or already populated) the black box that normally frames the active cell is missing (showing which cell you have selected). Likewise when I 'select all' the sheet does not become shaded.
In addition:
Cannot fill series
Cannot change cell format (specifically to show Currency or Accounting w/$ symbol)

Is there something built in to excel that highlights the cell or cells that are currenyl selected and then not save any highlighted cells when the sheet is saved. Maybe if not something that is built in but a vba script?

I have a routine that highlights a selected Active Cell,
but when I printout the spreadsheet this highlight is not printed.
I have been pull my hair out (what's left!), to try to show this highlighted cell when printed.
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Intersect(Range("d22:u45"), Target) Is Nothing Then
Range("d12").Value = " Out"
Range("e14").Value = "0"
Else
If Intersect(Range("d22:u45"), Target) >= 3 Then
Range("d12").Value = Cells(19, ActiveCell.Column).Value
Range("e14").Value = Cells(21, ActiveCell.Column).Value
Static rngPrev As Range, PrevColor As Integer
Dim TempColor As Integer
TempColor = Target.Cells(1, 1).Interior.ColorIndex
If Not rngPrev Is Nothing Then
If PrevColor <> xlLineStyleNone Then .......................

Is there a way to highlight the row and column of the active cell? The highlighting will move as the active cell is moved around the spread sheet. I have a newbie manager that is bugging the pea-turkey out of me! He wants to be able to easily see where he is within some of our sheets while he is in a vehicle or outside on a job site...seems like an "accessibility" type issue, but can't find anything in Excel "Options."

I have found this code by searching witch is perfect
Code:
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Cells.Interior.ColorIndex = 0
With Target 'With the cell that was selected,
.EntireRow.Interior.ColorIndex = 8
.EntireColumn.Interior.ColorIndex = 8
End With
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
The point is that i want to retain the previous formatting of cells when i select another cell. And also i would like to create a switch to turn the Worksheet_SelectionChange event on and off. The tricky part is here i guess, becouse i would like when turned off to retain the previous formatting also.

I am looking for a way to have the active cell row and column (standout). I did have it highlight but as users tried to highlight certain cells the active highlighting of the rows and columns would erase the color. So they are asking for something that can take its place with an on and off button to it.

if you click on a row, it highlights every cell in it, I want to do the exact same thing but then also when you click on a cell only.
Preferable (probably impossible though) without the use of VBA, because in my company
I think some are "carefull" with enabling macro

I spend a lot of time in spread sheets working with part numbers and sales figures. With a part # in column B and sales per month in adjacent columns, stretching back years. Is there any way to highlight an entire row automatically? ie. I use Ctrl F to search for a number and it goes to B24. I now want the entire row 24 highlighted as the active row.
When I move to another cell I want the entire row highlighted automatically. Can it be done.

I found this code to highlight the active row. I tried to make it highlight the row and column, but I was not successful. What I really need is to highlight the active row and column above and to the left of the active cell, not the entire row and column. For example, if G10 is active, the highlighted cells would be G1:G10 and A10:G10.
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Excel. Range)
Dim i As Long
Cells.Interior.ColorIndex = xlColorIndexNone
If Application. CountA(Target.EntireRow) 0 Then
i = Target.Row
Else
For i = Me.UsedRange.Rows.Count To 1 Step -1
If Application.CountA(Me.Rows(i)) 0 Then
i = i + 1
Exit For
End If
Next i
End If
Rows(i).Interior.ColorIndex = 6
End Sub
Also, I have fill colors on the sheet and I just noticed that the code removes those fill colors. I need it to not remove my fill colors. The only fill colors it should remove are ones it previously colored.

Using Excel 2010. Is it possible to change the default line thickness and fill color when selecting the ActiveSheet Target Row below?
I would like a thin border and a light grey fill - without interfering with any fomatting or conditional formatting that has been applied to the worksheet.

I found this spreadsheet on here and I have been trying to customize it to what I need. I am trying to have scores from skins match highlighted. I want only the minimum score to be highlighted but if there is another duplicate minimum score I don't want it to highlight anything. I also need to find a way to count the skins won by each player and have it off to the side.
For those not familiar with golf a Skin is a game where you try to get the lowest amount of strokes on a specific hole. Ex- 4 people play the hole one. P1 scores 4, P2 gets a 3, P3 and P4 get 6. The skin would go to P2 who has the lowest score on that hole.
Highlight lowest number in each column not highlighting if there are duplicates starting at L6 down to L11 and for each column till AC. And the same for the group just to the right on attached file.
On row 13 and 14 it tells me who won a skin. I want to tally up the total skins won by each player. so if Joe's names shows up twice on R14 I want it to tell me somewhere in the sheet Joe = 2

I have got stuck on one piece of my code and having trouble fixing... Overall I am trying to find variable station name in cell L2 of Sheet 2 in Sheet 1 and then select and copy the data from the data in "cell L2 of Sheet 2" to the last entry of that row. I have attached an example test spreadsheet of the data and a macro is within Sheet 1 called test1. Please note that cell L2 in Sheet 2 will always be different station name and the station list in Sheet 1 will change with differing station name.
The code I am using is:

The code that is not working and bringing up an error is:

Column A is all random dates . When the date happens on the 1st I need to highlight that row. I'm pretty sure conditional formatting is the way I need to go but have had no luck. The date format is dd/mm/yy.

Was working away on one of my spreadsheets and the black square that surrounds the cell you click on has vanished. i.e. if you click on cell A1, you normally get a black square surrounding the cell A1 to let you know that you are on it. That black square has disappeared.
It seems to affect any spread that I open but if I open a new spreadsheet it is there.

I work with many sheets that have many data columns and have used a "greenbar" formula in conditional formating but would like to have a similar formula that highlights the current row. If possible, it would be nice if this new formula would not wipe out all other formatting as it moves.
I have seen Ivan's work at www.mrexcel.com/hof001.php but it says that it wipes out other formatting.
The formula that I am currently using is =MOD(ROW(),3)=2
Is there a way of getting the current row number so that it could be
=ROW()=(current row number) ?

I have a problem regarding highlighting a specific cell, when i entered a specific date in another cell
Let me explain
If there is a Name, joining date, termination date/resignation date in cell A1 A2 & A3 respectively.
If the name is John, Joining date = 01/01/2012, Resignation Date 06/06/13
I need a formula which highlights the cell A2 plus all those cells which have the same date when i entered a date (i.e 01/01/2012) in another cell.

As said a box appears with information guiding the user to what should be entered.
I inherited this spreadsheet and would like to edit the contents of this box and also learn how to make them myself.
Also I'd like to note that the box does not respond to right clicking

I have built a spreadsheet for my business which has an annoying feature I can't get rid of. When I click in a cell I want to enter data in the spreadsheet automatically highlights that cell and the neighbouring cell. I have to move away then back with the arrow keys to get back to the single cell I want to enter data in.

I have a macro, and it mainly works, except the second part where it checks if the value is less than 7, and returns it to a white background.
The cell has a formula in it that returns "" based on another series of cells. I have considered changing that to a zero and formating, but for reasons that don't need explanation, i have chosen not to.
here is the macro. I need the second part to be activated if less than 7, as well as if the cell returns ""
