I am using excel 2007 and am trying to select a rather large spreadsheet and
have excell fill each alternating cell with a certain colour. ex. a1 blue
fill, a2 no fill, a3 blue fill, etc. etc.

Please help
 
Use Conditional Formatting.

Select your range of cells to apply the formatting to.
Click on "Conditional Formatting" (Home Tab, Styles Section)
Select "New Rule"
Select "Use a formula to determine which cells to format"
Enter the formula: =MOD(ROW(),2)=1
Click the "Format" Button
Select your format (blue fill)
Click OK

HTH,
Elkar
