I have some calculated columns in an Excel (2007) table. I'd like to distinguish them visually from the user-input columns in some way, but without losing the nifty automatic row banding. It looks like I can create a "table style", but only the first and last columns can get separate formatting. Is there any way to format arbitrary columns (or at least the last n columns instead of just the last one)?
Thanks for the answer. Wouldn't conditional formatting lose me the rest of the table formatting though? Specifically the row banding? – jtolle – 2010-11-05T14:52:29.340
Yes, conditional formatting overwrites other formatting properties. It could not be different. You have to think a conditional formatting that is compatible with row banding. For example, a row banding with slight different colors than the other ones, or with different colors for text.
