Default Excel 2007 - change size of text as a result of conditional format

Is it possible to specify a condition (using conditional formatting) and
change size or colour of text as a result?

Thanks in advance

That is exactly what Conditional Formatting does - set your condition
in the dialogue box (eg Cell Value Is, Equal to, Emece) then click the
Format button and in the Font panel you can choose the size and colour
that you want to apply to this condition. Click OK twice to exit the
dialogue boxes.

Hope this helps.

Yes, you can change color using the condition format. You can not change the
size of the text. Closest you can get is making the text bold, italics, etc.
You can also choose to do a strikethrough.

Well, you can change font size by using VB code instead. So, if you want
conditional, then no. But if you really want the font size changed, VB is
your way to go.
