Is the plan to implement this via a conditional formatting formula?

<div>
I couldn't get the conditional formatting to set the color.<br />
the formula '=A2.interior.color = 255' is accepted but does nothing<br />
<br />
macro codewise it is:<br />
If Range(&quot;A2&quot;).Interior.Color<wbr /> = 255 Then Range(&quot;C2&quot;).Interior.Color<wbr /> = 150<br />
<br />
apparently you cannot get the format directly and should use code. I do it on the sheet selection change event e.g.<br />
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(<wbr />ByVal Target As Range)<br />
&nbsp; If Range(&quot;A2&quot;).Interior.Color<wbr /> = 255 Then Range(&quot;C2&quot;).Interior.Color<wbr /> = 150
</div>

<blockquote>
Unfortunately, the Color and ColorIndex properties of a Range don't return the color of a cell that is displayed if Conditional formatting is applied to the cell. &nbsp;Nor does it allow you to determine whether a conditional format is currently in effect for a cell.

Microsoft Excel topics include formulas, formatting, VBA macros and user-defined functions, and everything else related to the spreadsheet user interface, including error messages.

Microsoft Excel

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.

Visual Basic Classic

VBScript (Visual Basic Scripting Edition) is an interpreted scripting language developed by Microsoft that is modeled on Visual Basic, but with some important differences. VBScript is commonly used for automating administrative and other tasks in Windows operating systems (by means of the Windows Script Host) and for server-side scripting in ASP web applications. It is also used for client-side scripting in Internet Explorer, specifically in intranet web applications.
