Insert Autoshapes in excel

[ramyaedula]

Hello,

I would like to insert an object (autoshape) in a Excel 2003.

If Value in a cell = UP then the autoshape UPARROW with blue color to
be displayed
If Value in a cell = DOWN then the autoshape DOWNARROW with blue color
to be displayed
If Value in a cell = FLAT then the autoshape FLAT with blue color to
be displayed( some thing like this, but all the ends are connected
<==>)

I have to automate these values either by IF-THEN-ELSE or by using
Macro VB as the same needs to be displayed in a loop.

Can anyone help to provide the solution for this problem?

Thanks in advance for your help/suggestions

What you describe is doable but have you considered using arrows from a font
such as Windinsg3 or Marlett with respective characters in an If formula,
together with Conditional formatting to change the font colour.
