Default How do you make Conditional Formating work?

Either your cell doesn't meet the condition you specified, or you
didn't pick a color for your condition.

If you are still having trouble you might need a visual aid -- check

Select the range of cells then FormatCFCell Value is:


between 95 and 100


Format to red pattern and red border and OK your way out.


Note: set the border color before selecting the type of border or it will
default to Automatic even if you select a color.


BTW.......red border around a red cell will not not show up.

can not seem to get it to do what I need to do. I click on format and
conditional format. I need to Highlight all numbers between 95 and 100 in
