          • Thanks for your answer, but I want to format all cells in the sheet. With this solution I can only make one column at a time (for instance by selecting column A and writing =ISFORMULA($A1)). For the whole sheet I wouldn't know what to put into the brackets.

          • @kaleidoscop you will put the same but you will apply it to the whole range. eg instead of A1:A, type in A1:Z
