Default Active Cell Border Color

Your event macro works well with single cells..thank you!

How might one get all boarders of merged cells to change color?

Put the following Event macro in the worksheet code area:

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim v As Variant
v = Array(xlEdgeBottom, xlEdgeTop, xlEdgeRight, xlEdgeLeft)
For Each r In ActiveSheet.UsedRange
With r
For i = 0 To 3
.Borders(v(i)).LineStyle = xlNone
Next
End With
Next

For i = 0 To 3
With ActiveCell.Borders(v(i))
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.Weight = xlThick
.ColorIndex = 7
End With
Next
End Sub


REMEMBER: the worksheet code area, not a standard module.

I know this can be done, I just can remember how or seem to be able to find
it under help.

I would like the border around my active cell to be a different color so it
stands out easier than the now black border on an all black text document. I
know how to add borders to cells, but I need the active cell border than
moves to change color. Please help if you know how to do this!

Thanks.
