Try:

C6:
=ISNA(C6)
then:
=C6C7


C7:
=ISNA(C7)
then:
=C7C6
and then:
=OR(C7<C6,ISNA(C6))

I have two rows where I need to show a yellow background if the top number
is
higher than the bottom.

I have done a conditional format which works great until it runs into the
occassional cell that contains a N/A because there is no data to report.
(The cell is suppose to contain the N/A)

How can I hightlight the top row and bottom row it the top row cotains the
hightest number and have neither of them highlight if the top row has the
lowest or a N/A.

Currently conditional format is.

Formatting in C6
if c6=N/A no formatting
if c6 is greater than c7 yellow background

Formatting in C7
if c7=N/A no formatting
if C7 is greater than c6 no formatting
if c7 is less than c6 yellow background (this is the problem area, if c6
equals N/A it is reading it as less than)

Any suggestions?
