Conditional Formatting by percent range
Windows XP Pro SP3
Excel 2007 Suppose cells A1:A10 contain integer values. Now suppose cells B1:B10 also contain integer values. I'd like to conditionally format the values in column B so that if the value in column B is greater than 100% of the value in column A then the B cell is shaded red. If the value in column B is greater than or equal to 75% but less than 100% of the value in column A then the B cell is shaded yellow. If the value in column B is less than 75% of the value in column A then the B cell is shaded green. Is this possible? A B ============= 20 18 <-- shaded yellow 50 10 <-- shaded green 75 81 <-- shaded red |

Answer: Conditional Formatting by percent range
Yes, this is possible using conditional formatting in Excel 2007. Here are the steps to achieve this:

Conditional Formatting by percent range
You can use the Conditional Formatting feature.
Click in target cell (B1), then click FormatConditional Formatting. Under Condition 1 have 'Cell Values Is', then 'greater than', then =B2, then click the Format button and on the Patterns tab select the red shade, and click OK. Back at the Conditional Formatting dialogue, click Add and a Condition 2 set of boxes appear. Set these to 'Cell Value Is', between, =0.75*B2, and =B2, then select the yellow shading. Add again and set Condition 3 as 'Cell Value Is', less than, =0.75*B2, then select the green shading, and OK twice. Finally copy cell B1 (Ctrl + C), then highlight cells B2:B10, right click, select Paste SpecialFormats. That should do it.

Conditional Formatting by percent range
I have something similar to the question above. Instead of have multiple cells changing, I have one cell changing based on a percentage of another cell:
A1= if B1 ====================== 100 =100 or (-+)10% <-- shaded green 100 Between (-+)10% and (-+)20% <-- shaded yellow 100 greater that (-+)20% <-- shaded red |
