Subject: $$Excel-Macros$$ Conditional Formatting using named ranges

Excel 2007-

I have a large spreadsheet that I add 2 rows to daily.  I also have
about a dozen conditional formatting formulas that flag certain
conditions for quick identification.  The worksheet that gets the
daily data is named "DataSheet"

I've written a quick VBA Macro that sets a named range "LastRow" on
the "Constants" worksheet to be the last row of the "DataSheet"
worksheet.  When I run that, it sets LastRow to 680  (today).

How can I adjust by conditional formatting rules to format down to the
value in LastRow?

In this case, water meter readings are recorded on a daily basis.  A
maximum of 2 cubic meters usage is OK, so a named range called
WaterAlarm on the Constants page is set to 2.0

e.g.  Here is the formula:   =AU453-AT453>WaterAlarm  and the range it
applies to is:  =$AU$453:$AU$674

Ideally this would adjust to the last row for all the conditional
formatting when I run the macro that sets the "LastRow"

I guess I could just add all the conditional formatting to the Macro
and be done with it but it would be nice to know how to do it in the
conditional formatting context.

Thanks
