Thank you for the help.

The only way I've found around the 3-condition limit is to write a custom VBA
macro to detect when a change in the cell(s) takes place, evaluate the new
value and set the format accordingly. You can have virtually unlimited
conditions using this method.

I'm trying to use conditional formatting in Excel but am limited to only 3.
Has anyone found a way around this?? I have 4 letters with different
background colors that I'm using and rather than copy and pasting I'm trying
to use a cell pull down but end up having to manually copy and paste one due
to the fact I'm using a default clear cell as a starting point.

Thanks, Greg
