Conditional Formatting Macro

[dok112]

Hi,

I created a macro that creates conditional formatting when i select a
certain cell range. I want to automate the whole process due to having
several different cells to modify in a seperate data sheet. When I
recorded the process, it didn't record the whole process, so I am at a
loss right now. I want to run the macro in a different spreadsheet
(the data sheet). Below is one of my current macros. When this is
run, it creates a button that I want to press that runs a macro in the
data sheet which uses CF and toolbar buttons. Any ideas??

Sub TLD_1()

Application.Run "'Productivity Report Generator.xls'!TLD1"
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Button 28").Select
Selection.OnAction = "AHT"

ActiveSheet.Shapes("Button 28").Select
Selection.Characters.Text = "Your Productivity Report"
With Selection.Characters(Start:=1, Length:=24).Font
..Name = "Georgia"
..FontStyle = "Regular"
..Size = 10
..Strikethrough = False
..Superscript = False
..Subscript = False
..OutlineFont = False
..Shadow = False
..Underline = xlUnderlineStyleNone
..ColorIndex = xlAutomatic
End With
ActiveCell.Select
End Sub

Sorry, I read what i posted and it didnt make much sense to me, so I'l
try to redescribe what I'm wanting to do. I have a button that runs
macro that creates a new toolbar with 6 other macros associated, i
also creates a button on the main page that I want to create a ne
macro for. This macro I want to create will apply to anothe
spreadsheet that is open. For ex. Cell's A1:A8 is a series of data.
want the macro to run the 1st macro button on the toolbar on tha
series, then I want it to run the 2nd macro button on series B1:B8 an
so forth. When I tried to record the macro, it didn't record any o
the conditional formatting that the macro buttons provided. Any idea'
how to fix this and make it work? if it possible? Thanks for all you
help

Go to the worksheet to be modified and then run

Range("a1:a8").select
MacroNameofFirstMacroToRun
Range("b1:b8").select
MacroNameOfSecondMacroToRun

and so forth.

Excel does not record the calling of macros from buttons in the macro
recorder, thus the results you saw.
