Hi John,<br />
<br />
Not too sure if that worked in Excel but in the article, it mentioned:<br />

No longer need a macro solution.

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
Is there any macro available to replicate a Rule of Conditional Formatting?<br />
<br />
Let's say currently I got 3 rules in a selection/workbook, how can I replicate the first rule (green background with yellow font, or whatever) and become the 4th rule?<br />
<br />

Or in another word, use macro to read the Conditional Formatting Rules, and create a new Rule? Any ideas?<br />
<br />
Thank you.

Replicate Rule of Conditional Formatting

Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) enables building user-defined functions (UDFs), automating processes and accessing Windows API and other low-level functionality through dynamic-link libraries (DLLs). VBA is closely related to Visual Basic and uses the Visual Basic Runtime Library, but it can normally only run code within a host application rather than as a standalone program. It can, however, be used to control one application from another via OLE Automation. VBA is built into most Microsoft Office applications.

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

Microsoft Office is an integrated suite of applications that includes Outlook, Word, Excel, Access, PowerPoint, Visio and InfoPath, along with a number of tools to assist in making the individual components work together. Coding within and between the projects is done in Visual Basic for Applications, known as VBA.
