Default 6 conditional formats in Excel 2002

One detail would be.............how are the values on sheet2 input?

Calculated or manually?

More details please.

Use sheet names and cell references rather than generic terms like "cell".

Yes, you can CF a cell on sheet1 based upon a value in a cell on sheet2.

You just have to give the value cell a defined name.

But with 6 formats you will need VBA or if the values are numeric you can
get up to 6 without VBA

See John McGimpsey's site for details of that.

Thanks for the reply Gord - my real question is a bit more complex...

I really need to know if it's possible to CF a cell on one worksheet based
on a value on a 2nd worksheet. To complicate it further, I have a total of 6
formats that I would like to apply.
