In my spread sheet I wanted to highlight fields whenever a user tabs out of that field by not entering any values. I wrote the quote and it worked fine by highlighting the cells whenever they left it blank. Now whenever they fill out those blank fields I want that cells color returned to the original color. I wrote the code but that changes it to original color only after clicking on the cell 2 times. I dont know where I am going wrong, all I want is as soon as they enter the values the color should change back to original color. Any help out there? Thanks.
 
have you tried conditional Formatting??

Just set it to:

Cell Value is Equal to =""

Then set the format to colored backgroud.

This means when there is no value the cell is colored.
 
I picked up a range of cell and for those cells I set the conditional formatting to turn the blank cells to green otherwise the original color for the non blank cells. When I did this nothing happened to those blank cells. Did u try it or anyother means? Thanks
