Default Changing the format of data in a cell

Enter the following formula in C3, then copy across to G3.
=IF(C2=MAX($C$2:$G$2),MAX($C$2:$G$2),"") Select C3:G3, and set as Bold. Now
set conditional formatting - depending on which Excel you have! - to
highlight the cell with a value. In 2007, choose Conditional formatting,
create new rule, 2 colour format, set lowest value fill colour as white, and
highest value cell fill as the colour of your choice
