You have to change the Condition 1 value from Cell Value Is to Formula Is.
Then insert the formula

=AND(B4=1,D4H4)

click Format, select Pattern tab, and then Green

Remove the quotes from around the cell, it is testing for a value

Hi
I must be doing something wrong.

I have a large spreadsheet which I have use a conditional
format...some
line
work ok but other do NOT

For example

In Col B I have 58.05
In Col C I have 8
In col D I divide Col B by Col c and get 7.26

The same occurs in Col F I have 9 and in Col G I have 1:Then I
divide
Col
F
by Col G and get 9 in col H
I have formatted COL H as follows:
Cell value greater than or equal to col D...........make it GREEN
Cell value less than COL D.............make it RED
In this case the color is GREEN and It should be red, Most other
lines
are
OK but not all
I need help...please
and Thanks
