Excel friends,

I am using the code below to change some cells conditional formatting. Since VBA sets "cel.Address" as an absolute reference by default. How can "cel.Address" be modified to be applied as a Relative Reference?

Code:
 For Each cel In Rng.Cells
    
   With cel

        cel.Select
        Selection.FormatConditions.Add Type:=xlExpression, Formula1:="=LEN(TRIM(" & cel.Address & "))=0"

         With Selection.FormatConditions(1).Font
  
             'Other formatting code                            

         End With

   End with

 Next cel

Thanks for any help!
