Excel - Conditional Formatting - insert row

Question

Using Offset or Indirect in \'Applies To\' does not seem to work. Is there any other way to stop conditional formatting from breaking after inserting row/s

Answer 1

I got it to work on Excel Mac 2011 by the following steps

• inserting the new row
• copying the one above it (with the conditional formatting already applied)
• highlighting the new row and PASTE SPECIAL -> MERGE CONDITIONAL FORMATTING.

The CF rules stayed unsplit and updated to include an additional row.
