Default conditional formatting for blank cells

Thank you ........

I selected a range A1:C5; some of these cells were blank others had 0 in
them
In CF dialog I used these two formulas
=ISBLANK(A1)..... green fill
=AND(ISNUMBER(A1),A1=0)... red fill
This gave me the result you wished to have
Note: it is not sufficient to use =A1=0 since blank cells will satisfy
this test
