Default Font color

Hi
do you call this function from your worksheet as worksheet formula. If
yes: no chance to change the format of a cell as user defined functions
can only return values but can't change the Excel environment

Using Excel 2k, I have this:
...
If intCount / 12 50 Then
intCount = 49.9 * 12
Selection.Font.ColorIndex = 3
Exit Do
End If
Loop

CCPayoutYears = intCount / 12

End Function...

in a function (CCPayoutYears) to compute years to pay off a credit
card and want to set the cell to 49.9 if it is over 50 years and set
the font color to red. intCount is the number of months accumulated
in the loop.

It doesn't work. What am I missing?
