Default Formula for cell format?


Hi,

Is there a formula to identify the format of a cell? For example, I
have a sheet with colored cells (eg. red and green) I want to match
with another sheet to see if the corresponding cells on Sheet 2 are the
same color as that on Sheet 1.

Much appreciated,
A

Need more information:

If the cells are manually formatted, you will need a Visual Basic User Defined
Function.

If the cells are formatted using conditional formatting, you will need to use
the same logic used by the conditional formatting equation.
