I'm reading this lot backwards but, you are selecting the cells
you want to
format first?
For example, when I was doing a sheet last week to list my DVD's
I put the
highlighted cell as the very first and top one and then cursored
down a few
hundred lines and across a few columns so I had loads and loads of cells
selected that would be altered when I formatted.
