Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
On Error Resume Next
Dim rg As Range
If Range("A1").Value = "No" Then Exit Sub
Err.Clear
Application.EnableEvents = False
Set rg = Application.Intersect(Target,
Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeAllFormatConditions))
Application.EnableEvents = True
If Err.Number < 0 Then Exit Sub
If rg Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Application.SendKeys "%E"
Application.Dialogs(xlDialogConditionalFormatting) .Show
End Sub

Is there an easy way to scroll over a worksheet to see what the Conditional
Formatting is for various cells? I know you can go through 'Format' -
'Conditional Formatting', but that can be very laborious. I'm reviewing a
fairly large worksheet where there are errors in the conditional formatting,
but most appear fine. I'd like to be able to scroll over cells and see what
the formatting is. Is this possible? Thanks! -Bill
