Hey all,


I am trying to figure out a way to format a set of numbers in an XL sheet
through a macro so that the number with the max value has a cell color
of red, the next max value has a cell color of yellow, the 3rd max value
has a cell color of blue, the 4th max value has a cell color of green, and
the 5th max value has a cell color of grey. If this is confusing replace
the "max value" with "top scoring". There will not be any ties.


For example

02
23 (yellow)
05
27 (red)
08
19 (blue)
01
10 (grey)
00
14 (green)
06


Has anyone done something similar to this and/or have suggestions?
