Hi, SLO.
Try using the "Conditional Formating" option in the Formating menu.
1. Select the columms where the negative values appear;
2. Go to Conditional Formating;
3. Choose the arguments for Cond.Formating the cells you chose.

I am trying to figure out how to automatically colour a cell in excel if
my "IF" statement turns out to be negative. For example I have a list of
prices in excel, and if they are $50 higher or $50 lower than the
targeted price I need that to be flagged somehow in excel (preferably
by filling it in with a different colour). Currently I am going through
the prices manually and this just takes up too much time!! Help me!
