how do I change cell background color only when cursor is over it

I have a cell that uses white text and white background, so that users cannot
see the text. But, if they try to type in this cell, I want the text to show
up. So, how can I change cell background color (or text color) only when
cursor is hovering over the cell?

If your aim is to stop them from overwriting your text why not simpl
lock & protect the cells
