Use Conditional Formatting.

Select all the rows, then go to Conditional Formatting and add these two rules.

Rule 1: Add the following CF formula:
Code:
=ISODD(ROW())
and choose the percentage format option

Rule 2: Add the following CF formula:
Code:
=ISEVEN(ROW())
and choose the number format option

=MOD(ROW(),2)=1

Takes the row number and after dividing by 2 if the remainder is 1 then it is an odd row, if it is 0 then it is an even row.
So you format the cell depending on the remainder being 1 or 0.

Maybe it needs to be this

=(MOD(ROW(),2)=1)
and
=(MOD(ROW(),2)=0)

Not really much different to the other solution provided.

if you put the =(MOD(ROW(),2)=1) formula in a blank cell and copy down the column it should say TRUE FALSE TRUE FALSE TRUE FALSE indicating odd and even rows.
