The steps to highlight every other row in excel by using an excel table are as follows: Step 1: Select the entire data entered in the excel sheet. Step 2: From the ‘Insert’ tab, select the option ‘ Table ’, or else you can also press ‘ Ctrl +T ’, which is a shortcut to create a table. Step 3: After selecting the table option.

During some experimenting with various ways of expressing the range, when looking in the event log (at the bottom of the Script Editor window), I noticed that the references to the cells being selected were in the format of $A$3,$B$50, rather than $A$3:$B$50. It looks like the comma indicates non-contiguous selections while the semicolon indicates a continuous block of selection from the first cell specified to the second. Pasting each into my script confirmed this. But I haven't worked out how to effect the necessary behaviour.

  1. When I use the formula INDIRECT(“E” & ROW ), I used the EXCEL ROW function to return the reference to the current row number (i.e., 3), and used this to form part of the cell reference. Therefore, the Indirect formula returns the value from cell E3.
  2. Select a row by clicking on the row number. You should see the row number on the far left of the sheet. The new row will appear above the selected row or rows. Highlight the same number of rows as you want to add. So to add one row, highlight just one row, to add 2, highlight 2 rows, etc.



What I have figured out is a workaround which seems to do the job I want without any unwanted side-effects. In the original files being imported the first two rows contain header information (descriptions, dates, etc.) which needs to be retained, with the actual data (which the chart would then use) starting on the third row. Because the top left cell of the data will always start in the same location in all the text files I have decided to format the text files so that there is an empty row after the first two rows (first data cell is now A4 instead of A3). Then I can use the following lines to select the data cells without even having to work out how many there are:


tell application 'Microsoft Excel'

activate Nick cave discography torrent download.

select range 'A4'

select current region of active cell

end tell


To quote from the Excel 2004 AppleScript Reference PDF: 'The current region property returns a range of cells bounded by blank rows and columns'. In other words, by selecting the first data cell and then the current region, the selection is expanded until it encounters an empty row or column. By separating the data from the header rows, there is a blank row above the data, so only the data is selected.


Mission accomplished, in terms of achieving a workable solution. However, I am still very curious about the reason for the happenings as described in my first post. If anybody knows why, I am quite keen to be educated.
