    hi ChinShiong,
    This may do the trick.
    Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
     Application.EnableEvents = False
     Target.Font.Color = vbRed
     Application.EnableEvents = True
    End Sub
    If the solution helped please donate to RSPCA

    Re: Highlight cell when source file is updated

    Thanks for the reply pike, but it doesn't work. Maybe I'm doing something wrong ?

    I opened Excel file A, right click on the sheet name, click "view code", and pasted the code there, and saved the file.

    Then I open the source file and changed the value. When I opened file A again to update the links to file B, the numbers are updated, but the font doesn't get highlighted to red. Any thoughts on this ?
