I am seeking a solution to enable a format style to be applied to a worksheet. Whilst I have experiemented with the macro recorder and shortened up the code it built, I need the code to loop down the sheet as long as there is data in Column A

Sub FormatCells()
Dim LastRow As Long
Dim i As Long
With ActiveSheet
LastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
If LastRow Mod 2 = 0 Then LastRow = LastRow + 1
For i = 2 To LastRow Step 2
With .Cells(i, "A").Resize(, 3).Interior
.Pattern = xlSolid
.PatternColorIndex = xlAutomatic
.ThemeColor = xlThemeColorAccent3
.TintAndShade = 0.799981688894314
.PatternTintAndShade = 0
End With
With .Cells(i, "D").Resize(2, 4)
.BorderAround LineStyle:=xlContinuous
.Borders(xlInsideVertical).LineStyle = xlContinuous
.Borders(xlInsideHorizontal).LineStyle = xlNone
End With
Next i
End With
End Sub

Thank you Bob. Once the style is applied to the sheet, can I simply change the sub title from Sub FormatCells() to Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) so that it comes into effect as soon as I insert a new pair of rows?

I don't think it would be a straight lift Ted.
You would need to determine what triggers the styling, and what to do if the value is removed, etc.

Aussiebear,
Did you try conditional formating? See the attached copy of your workbook; I added conditional formatting to it. I think it will work for you, and it resolves the issue of what to do when new line pairs are added, inserted or a line pair deleted or cleared.
Thanks,
