Chip Pearson has the RowLiner add-in which is fully customizable.

Highlight the active cell and/or row and column.

    Installing third party add-ins can't be a solution. Microsoft has to come up with something. Stop ignoring your customers Microsoft!

    I don't think that's possible, but see Highlight row and column of active cell for some alternatives.
