I use Excel… a LOT, and for a very long time! With that comes the inevitable… my eyes aren’t as young as they used to be… plus, we tend to have a TON of data in our Excel file, sometimes making it harder to know which data is on the row that I am looking at.
I know, you can use themes, or highlight the row manually, but I want something dynamic. I want to highlight the active row (the row where my cursor is)… and I am greedy, I want it to change every time I change rows.
I personally think this should be a feature built into Excel, but I cannot find it anywhere – if you know of a different way, please post a comment below.
I’ve put together a few steps to automatically highlight my active row. Read on to see these steps and maybe put it to use for you!
