Based on odd or even value in column A want to color cells in columns B - K.

If A1 is even want to color B1:K1 light green, if A1 is odd color B1:K1 darker green.
If A2 is even want to color B2:K2 light green, if A2 is odd color B2:K2 darker green.

Want to extend that formatting down whole sheet based on odd or even value in column A.

Thanks

The the same as above using
=ISEVEN($A2)

Thought it might be you Fluff, when I paint format down sheet it colors the cells before any value is in column A. how do I keep the cells B:K clear if column A is blank?

Change the Iseven formula to
=AND(ISEVEN($A2),$A2<>"")
