Thank you for quick and usefull help.
It works fantastic.

There is only one thing that is missing now and that is to protect the
sheet with a password.
I thought that that would be easy since I saw several examples in this
discusion group.
But as always, nothing is as easy as it looks.
I tried the following but get an error message for the
ActiveSheet.Protect part.
Can you help me out with this?

ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="test"
For Each rArea In Rng2.Areas
With rArea
.Font.ColorIndex = 35
.Formula = "a"
With .Interior
.ColorIndex = 35
.Pattern = xlSolid
End With
End With
Next rArea


ActiveSheet.Protect _
DrawingObjects:=True, _
Contents:=True, _
Scenarios:=True
Password:="test"

Thanks

Eric
