Find and Replace Highlight colour
When I'm using the Find and Replace function and hit find, Excel finds the cell but its very hard to see because of the highlighted colour. Is there a way to change the default colour? Thanks in adv...
- I understand your struggle now. I guess you will have to rely on the columns and row headers to help you detect the column and row of the active cell.
Option 2 is to use less vibrant colours in your cells.

Had the same issue! Found how to fix this!
Look at this video 🙂

This works if you know where the active cell is. Unfortunately, I'm just using the Find command to find the information on the worksheet.
- its working with the find and seach
- I typed in the code exactly like the video shows, and it removes all my color formatting of my worksheet. It turns the background to all white.
If the colors could stay the same this would be the closest solution yet.
