Default text color

hello everyone, i was wondering if there is a way to change the color of
text in the active cell only! i know that the background color can be
changed in the active cell, but how about text?

Hello Bassfisher

On your task bar, you should have an A with a colour beneath it. If you
select the cell you want to have the text colour changed in, click on the
drop down arrow to the right of the A with colour bar beneath it and select
the colour preferred.

Hope this helps.

i am sorry, i didn't phrase my question properly! i was referring to as you
scroll through a sheet, the text color changes as you move about from cell to
cell, thus highlighting the cell thqt you are in

If yes, you may want to try Chip Pearson's Rowliner:
