Conditional Formatting macro: simple, but doesn't work. Using Excel 2007
with Windows 7.

Enter the number 1 in cell A1 and the number 2 in cell B1.

Start the macro recorder.
Select A1:B1.
Click Conditional Formatting, New Rule, Use a formula.
Enter: =$a1<$a2, Format, Border, select a continuous bottom border, OK, OK.
Select cell B1 (only).
Click Conditional Formatting, New Rule, Use a formula.
Enter: =B1<C1, Format, Font, Color, select red, OK, OK.
Stop the macro recorder.

Everything looks perfect with a line under cells A1:B1 and red font in cell
B1 (only).

Click Conditional Formatting, Clear Rules, Clear Rules from Entire Sheet.
Run the macro.
It does not implement correctly.
The incorrect result is a red font in both cells A1 and B1 rather than just
cell B1.
The text of the macro looks correct yet it insists on applying the font
color to both cells.

I tried modifying the macro, used cell ranges rather than "Selection," and
rearranged the sequence--all to no avail.

(Interestingly, if you reverse the order by first applying the conditional
font color to B1 prior to the conditional bottom border being applied to
A1:B1, the macro returns "Run-time error '1004': Unable to set the LineStyle
property of the Border class.")
