Hello all,

I have a few different cells in my Excel spreadsheet that I want to always
be bold or shaded red no matter what is in these cells. I have some data
that I sort and always want the top to be bold and shaded red. And of course
when I sort the data and the top data that was bold and red is no longer at
the top, I no longer want it to be bold and red.

How can I make sure these are always bold and red if the data within these
cells keeps moving in and out of them when I sort the data?

Thanks in advance.

One way:

Select the top cells. Choose Format/Conditional Formatting...

CF1:        Formula is   =TRUE
Format1:    <font:bold>/<pattern:shaded>
