i wanted that if cell box contained less than 5 characters, it is fill with
red.
above is all digits stores in text. i made it text since some values have 0
in front.

i went to conditional formating and did
cell value is, not equal to, ="LEN(5)"
then fill box with red
i also tried ="LENB(10)" but that didn't work.

could you please help?

thank you
