Thanks for the reply. Yes, I know that I can do the equivalent on a
cell-by-cell basis, which is what I think I will end up doing. But as reading
a large string array into a range with a single command is so fast, I would
have preferred it if this array could also have contained the formatting,
which would be dramatically faster than iterating through thousands of cells.
Thanks anyway

You don't need VBA or conditional formatting to set either a cell's font or
background color. If your c# code can fill a cell with text it should also
be able to:

Format Cells... Font Italic
