I have a large spreadsheet and I have a macro in the worksheet to color the active row and column. I have figured out how to restrict the color application on the columns. When I select a cell, the row is highlighted from column A to column DP. However I cannot figure out how to restrict the rows in a specific column from 1 to 150 to be highlighted. I have my macro code pasted below. How can I restrict the number of rows highlighted in a particular column?

VBA Code:
Dim MyRow As Integer
Dim MyCol As Integer

MyRow = ActiveCell.Row
MyCol = ActiveCell.Column

If MyCol < 120 And Target.Row < 304 Then

    Cells.Interior.ColorIndex = xlColorIndexNone
    Range("A" & MyRow & ":DP" & MyRow).Interior.Color = RGB(115, 240, 255)
    Target.EntireColumn.Interior.Color = RGB(115, 240, 255)
    Target.Interior.ColorIndex = xlColorIndexNone

End If

Thanks for the Help.

When they said you are going to "Excel at life", they meant you "will be doing Excel your whole life".
How about
VBA Code:
Cells(1, Target.Column).Resize(304).Interior.Color = RGB(115, 240, 255)
