=FormatCell(A1), calling the following macro, in B1 Function FormatCell(a As Range) a.Cells(1, 1).Select Selection.Font.Bold = True Selection.Font.ColorIndex = 3 End Function Why I hav'nt A1 formatted? I have breakpointed the macro and it triggers when I change the A1 value. Bye, Emiliano |

A UDF cannot directly change the format of a cell.

Thanks, any advice to get it?
I used the UDF since I've to manage complex conditions. Emiliano "Gary''s Student" ha scritto nel messaggio ...

Two approaches:
1. Use the UDF, (or something like it) to set a Conditional Format. 2. Put the UDF or related UDF in a worksheet cell and use a Calculate Event Macro to paint formats based upon the value returned. -- Gary''s Student - gsnu2007a "eggpap" wrote: Thanks, any advice to get it?
