Making a Cell turn color based on results in another cell
=IF($C$2="Y",TRUE,FALSE)
Helps to read a book on Excel before you use it.

I have a formula in column A that is Y or N based on the results in another
cell.
If it is Y, I would like to turn the date in another column to turn Red.
I have gone into the conditional formatting menu and selected formula is.
Then typed in $C$2 = Y and changed the format color to red. C2 does in
fact
= Y, but the color doesn't change. Any insight into what I am doing
wrong?
