Default Cell fill color

Conditional formatting is the way to go. However, you cannot use a reference
to another worksheet or workbook in conditional format but what you can do is
in some out of the way area of your worksheet you can make a cell = the cell
on the other worksheet and then you can refer to a cell on the same worksheet
for the conditional format.

Example say Sheet1!AA3 = Sheet2!A3.

Use following formula for the conditional format on Sheet1:- =AA3=3

Hi Experts need your help...
I need to change the cell fill color (in a cell in sheet one) based on the
cell value (in a cell in sheet two).

Thanks
