    Highlight Cells currently referenced in a formula

    Hi!

    I have a workbook with a bunch of datasheets. Most of the columns in the datasheets are not being referenced in the summary sheet. I am currently editing the queries so that unused data is no longer pulled.

    Is there a quick and easy way to use Excel to highlight my datasheets to show which columns are referenced in formulas and which are not?

    Thanks!

    Hi Mike,

    YES Excel has a tool in the formulas tab that shows what I think you want:

    mikeczyz,

    While you're at it please update your profile to show what version(s) of Excel you are using.

    Many members tailor solutions with that in mind.

    Thanks,
    Dave
