    Highlight active row

    I need to be able to select any cell in my worksheet and it highlight the whole row. I had found a macro that worked when i entered the formula, =ROW()=$A$1 into conditional formatting. It worked fantastically but i some how managed to delete the macro and Ive searched the web and cant find anything that works.

    HELP!!!!

    Re: Highlight active row

    I have, unfortunetly I am very very new when it comes to Macros and VBA things. I really dont understand them at all and i know exactly what I want to happen and none of them see to be able to do that and I dont have the ability to change and alter them to fit my needs.

    I would like it to only HIGHLIGHT the row, leaving all other formatting alone. IE: borders, text styles things like that. And thats what my old one did. I loved it.

    Have you really tried the one I gave in above link?
    It works that way.
    Have a look into attachment.
    See code of sheet1 (Arkusz1) where it sits.

    Hi, boll55,

    Your post does not comply with Rule 8 of our Forum RULES. Do not crosspost your question on multiple forums without including links here to the other threads on other forums.

    Cross-posting is when you post the same question in other forums on the web. The last thing you want to do is waste people's time working on an issue you have already resolved elsewhere. We prefer that you not cross-post at all, but if you do (and it's unlikely to go unnoticed), you MUST provide a link (copy the url from the address bar in your browser) to the cross-post.

    Expect cross-posted questions without a link to be closed and a message will be posted by the moderator explaining why. We are here to help so help us to help you!

    Read this to understand why we ask you to do this, and then please edit your first post to include links to any and all cross-posts in any other forums (not just this site).
