Use a while loop in Office Scripts to process a list and apply formatting to each row.

This exercise is provided to allow potential course delegates to choose the correct Wise Owl Microsoft training course, and may not be reproduced in whole or in part in any format without the prior written consent of Wise Owl.

Before you can do this exercise, you'll need to download and unzip this file.

Open the Dinosaurs.xlsx file and create a new script.

The aim of the exercise is to use a while loop to colour the cells of each row according to which period the dinosaur lived in.

For reference, the colours used here are orange, cornflowerblue and palegreen.

A basic outline for your script could be:

Create a Range variable to refer to cell A2.
Create a loop which continues while the value of the cell in the variable is not an empty string.
Check the value of the cell corresponding to the period in which the dinosaur lived and colour in the row accordingly.
Set the range variable to reference the cell that is one row below.

Run the script to check that it works, then save and close it and the workbook.

You can unzip this file to see the answers to this exercise, although please remember this is for your personal use only.
