If you mean that you have two cell references in the two dialog windows eg
=D1
then it works for me as expected. Remove the quotes from arounf the cell
reference is XL puts them in.

I am finding that using the "not between" function in conditional
formatting
works exactly the opposite of expected. In other words if I format the
cell
to if cell value is "not between" 1 and 10 highlight it yellow. If 7 is
in
the cell it becomes yellow. If 15 is in the cell it is not yellow.

Note that the 1 and 10 in the example are cell references in my
spreadsheet.

Am I the only one or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks
