Trying to color an excel row based on list

[curranjohn46]

Hi,

The code below uses openpyxl and iterates through all rows and columns in a spreadsheet searching for a value in a list called subID. It then colors each cell it finds with that value light blue. I am trying to figure out how to color the whole row when a cell is found.

Any suggestions on how I can do this? I am not 100% sure but openpyxl may be forcing me to color each cell individually in the row.

#this colors the cell wherever sub id in list is found.

lightblueFill = PatternFill(start_color='c9e1f8',
                   end_color='c9e1f8',
                   fill_type='solid')

max_row=ws2.max_row
max_column=ws2.max_column

# iterate over all rows
for ro in range(1,max_row+1):
    
    # iterate over all columns
    for co in range(1,max_column+1):
        
        # get particular cell value 
        cell_obj=ws2.cell(row=ro,column=co) 
        
        #searches all cell and columns for a value in a list called subID
        if cell_obj.value in subID:
        
            #colors the cells found light blue. 
            cell_obj.fill = lightblueFill
