Excel Facts

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
With all the rows selected, Conditional Formatting Formula is:

=$A1="TOTAL"

which assumes that A1 is the active cell when it is entered. Change that reference to suit, but be sure to keep the $ before the column reference.
