Comparing cells, coloring differences

Select column C and FormatCFFormula is:
=C1<B1
Format to a color and OK your way out.
The C1 and B1 references, being relative, will increment down the column.

Hi Beverly,
Have you tried using conditional formatting? You don't have to write any
code for this. Just go to cell C1, select Format-Conditional Formatting,
select cell value is not equal to B1, then click the "Format" button and
change it to something like a red background with bold font.
That works, but I need to do this for every single row in a very long
table. Is there a way to generalize the rule so it covers all the
rows, not just one-at-a-time?
Thanks!
