Default Conditional Formatting of cells containing interger values

How do you have it exactly set up because it works perfectly for me. Do you
have any numbers in that list between -1500 and 1500?

Alright, try this. Assume the test data starts in cell A1 and change
according to your actual data.

Hilight all your data you want the conditional formatting applied to.
Click on format--condition formatting

In the first condition change Cell Value is to Formula Is

Then put in the formula

=OR(AND(A1<-200,A1-1499),AND(A1200,A1<1499))
Then you can change the format to yellow or whatever you want

Then click add to create another condition and once again select formula is
and type in

=OR(A1<=-1500,A1=1500)

Then format this to red or whatever you want.
This should work
