Default Copy Paste conditional formatting

Here's how to copy-paste conditional formatting ONLY:

Select a cell that has the conditional formatting set already. Open
the conditional formatting dialog. Under "Applies to", either type in
the cell addresses (as a range, e.g., $A$5:$G$5) to which you want the
conditional formatting to apply OR click on the red/blue icon and
select the range manually in the spreadsheet. Click OK.

The above works for Excel 2007. As I recall, it worked for 2003 as
well.

Hope this helps. (Don't you wish the Help files would tell you this?
Maybe they do somewhere, but if you type in a search term like "Paste
conditional formatting", you get 100 results none of which are on
point, or if they are, the title of the Help page doesn't clue you in
on which one to choose.)

hi,
I haveconditionalformating on cell *T17
condition is if sum of B17 to S17 is greater than 0.5 then the cell T17
should turn red (or specified color). I am using this equation =Sum(T17:S17)
Condition is working fine on T17.
