If they are <1% of the goal, red.....equal to or between -1% & 1%

Hi Amanda,

There is no equivalent thing in the chart area for conditional
formatting,
however, with a little work you can create a chart that duplicates what
you
want. But before I try to ddo that - exactly what do you want - do you
want
the entire column to change color after they reach some target or do you
want
the amount above the target to show as a different color than the amount
below the target?

I have a worksheet that evaluates the % of a goal. I have it set up as
a
chart and autoshape (to look like a thermometer).

Currently, I have one cell that changes colors based on the comparison
between their goal and where they are at....this is the information
that
fills the chart....however I can't figure out how to change the chart
color
like the cell.
