Is it possible to write a custom function which when executed in a cel
,automatically changes its formatting?

Ideally this would look something like this:

FUNCTION CUBE(X) AS DOUBLE
CUBE=X^3
(PSEUDO-CODE --) IF CUBE3 THEN ACTIVECELL.COLOR=RED_

END FUNCTION


I would appreciate any ideas on the subject.Thanks for your attentio

Check out conditional formatting (Format, conditional format).

With Conditional Formatting you can change some Font attributes (colour,
style), borders and cell colour, but that's all. Check it out in help.
