highlighting rows

Does anyone know a method to highlight every other row or every 4 rows? is there a formula I can use to apply a color formatting every few rows?

Thanks

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
Hallo

Use conditional formatting formula in A4 format:
Code:
=SE(INT(RIF.RIGA()/4)-RIF.RIGA()/4<0;0;1)
insert formatting here then copy the cell down.

For every other row you can use this formula in Conditional Formatting:

=MOD(ROW(),2)=1

HTH,

You can play in conditional formating with formula like this:

=MOD(ROW(),5)<4

or this for alternate row

=MOD(ROW(),2)
