    Highlighting cells whilst editing

    Hello!

    For all you Excel experts out there - is there any way to highlight a cell
    that is currently being edited in different colours or for that matter
    filling the background of the cell with a colour? Once you leave the cell it
    should revert back to the standard colour being used in the spreadsheet, ie.
    black font/white background.

    This is to make a big spreadsheet easier to edit and to find where your
    current position is in the spreadsheet easier.

    Hope that makes sense.

    Thanks in advance for your help.
