How to make a conditional format recognize a formula in a cell
I'd bet changing from manual calc or rebuilding the dependency tree would fix
that problem.

Thanks Dave.
Someone reported a problem with this UDF no updating so I stuck the volatile in
there.

Since you're passing the cell to the UDF, I don't think you want the
"application.volatile" line.
Excel should know when to recalc.

One method.
Copy/paste this UDF to your workbook into a General Module.
Function IsFormula(cell)
Application.Volatile
IsFormula = cell.HasFormula
End Function
Select the multiple cells........e.g. A1:A10
FormatCFFormula is: =NOT(IsFormula(A1))

What I have is have a spreadsheet with multiple cell containing data. Some
of the data is retreived by a formual and some is due to a manual input of
numbers. I would like to have a conditional format that would shade the cell
if someone writes over the formula with a value.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
