How do I draw a circle around a cell I want to highlight - I want to
see the text within the cell and colour the circle red. I tried
inserting a circle from the 'drawing toolbar' but I couldn't see the
text in the cell.

i have seen Excel worksheets with this feature and would like to
emulate it.

Thanks,

Janev

Click on the circle, and change the Fill colour from automatic to *No Fill*
