Excel Facts

What is the last column in Excel?
Excel columns run from A to Z, AA to AZ, AAA to XFD. The last column is XFD.
If you're looking for someone to reply to your hotmail, it ain't gonna happen. It defeats the whole purpose of the board.

If you want to change the colour of the cursor, it ain't gonna happen. (at least not without some intensive hours of API research)

You're stuck with four cursor types in Excel and they're all white.

You can of course highlight the active cell
via application change event to a different
colour.........I believe there is code avial
on this board to do that.....

I believe it was ?? who posted this code ??
There are other ways.....
My appolgies to the original poster(s) I think
it was Nate0,Dave Hawley and others..


<pre/>
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim iColor As Integer

iColor = Target.Interior.ColorIndex

If iColor < 0 Then
iColor = 1
Else
iColor = iColor + 1
End If

Cells.FormatConditions.Delete
Target.FormatConditions.Add Type:=xlExpression, Formula1:="TRUE"
Target.FormatConditions(1).Interior.ColorIndex = iColor

End Sub

</pre>
