    Can Conditional Formatted be locked but allow copy/paste?

    Have a log that turns colors based on dates, some reason or another it ends up getting messed up and my four conditional formats become a dozen with different ranges. Is there a way to lock the formatting?

    If you use Paste Special then select Formulas or Values (as required), the formatting of the destination cell won't change.

    If your problem is solved, please go to 'Thread Tools' above your first post and 'Mark this Thread as Solved'.
    If you use commas as your decimal separator (1,23 instead of 1.23) then please replace commas with semi-colons in your formulae.
    You don't need to give me rep if I helped, but a thank-you is nice.
