    highlight values

    Whilst previewing Open Office (.org) I noticed a nice feature which auto highlights input values (ie non formula cells). Makes it easy for a user of the sheet to know where to input data. Does anyone know if excel can do this?

    You can get close to this by selecting all the cells, hit F5, Special,Precedents.

    Once you have the selection, colour it.

    This only works if you have one level of formulae. If you have multiple levels, the intermediate formulae are selected as well.
