Hey all,

I would like to underline the value in selected cell using conditional formatting along with Application.Calculate method.

I have achieved this with formatting the row and column with formula's such as

=COLUMN()=CELL("col")
=CELL("row")=ROW()

=$A$1:$DZ$1
=$A$1:$A$600

respectively

so that the above procedure will underline cell in row 1 and cell in column 1 but what formula is to highlight the active cell? thus giving me 3 underlined cells not just 2.

Also can I combine all three in a single line to save me trouble of making three separate conditional formatting rules.

Thanks in advance and much appreciation.

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)
=(COLUMN() = CELL("col")) * (ROW() = CELL("row"))
