If I have an answer to an argument that exceeds a certain number then
want the cell to be colour flagged red as a warning so that it wil
instantly stand out in a large sheet of data. Any idea

Hi Keith,
Rob answered your question exactly as you asked for -- one cell.
I have a page on Conditional Formatting that you might want to
look at if you are interested in more than one cell.
