Try the FormatPainter, the little PaintBrush icon up in the tool
bar...........click on your colored cell, then click on the icon, then click
and drag on the cells you want to be the same...........

anyone know if I can link formats across cells? For example, if I fill a
cell
with a color, can I link it to another cell that will do the same ?

thanks.
