    2. total of 6 rules
    3. these will be the only rules on this workbook
  2. Create new rule

    2. olor to GBH 237,125,49
      1. the orangish color on the top row of the colors on the theme colors screen
        1. the 5th one in the row

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
If you turn on your Macro Recorder, and record yourself performing these steps manually, it should give you the VBA code you require.
The Macro Recorder is a great tool for getting snippets of code like this.
You can often "clean it up" a little afterwards, if you like (i.e. getting rid of unnecessary "Select" statements), though it is not necessary.
