I am trying to manually copy selected cells, from one Excel application to
another.
After selecting the cells and pressing <Ctrl<c, I close the application so
the data copies and not the underlying formulas.

I open the destination Excel application and select the appropriate cells to
paste to.
I press <Ctrl<v.
So far so good.

However, my problem is that the Fill Colors do not copy over.
The fill colors that were originally there before the <Ctrl<v remain.
Only the data is changed.

How do I get the fill colors and the data to copy but not the original
formulas.

Thanks for your help.
