Default Colour Formular (Not a function!)

Hi again,

Is it possible to have a formular that takes the colour from one cel
and uses it to for the text colour in the cell with this formular?

I require this as I have 4 cells. 1 for some text, 1 for the backgroun
colour, 1 for the text colour and 1 for a sample of what the text wil
look like with the colours set in the other 2 cells.

I know how to do this as a function but really want it as a cel
formular!

Any ideas?

Cheer

If you mean you put the formula in a worksheet, then functions are not
allowed to change the excel environment - so this is not possible. They can
only return a value to the cell in which they are used.
