Default Alignment for a cell during an if statement.

When you are in the conditional formatting menu, it does not allow you to
select cell alignment. Only font, border and color.

Don't change your IF statement

Suppose you have this in A1
=IF(B1=10,"B1 is 10","B1 is not 10")

Select A1
Choose Format-Conditional Formatting
Choose 'cell values is' 'equal to' B1 is 10
and choose formatting

add a condition and repeat for B1 is not 10.

Use conditional formatting...
Choose one format for one result and another for another result

I want the alignment for a cell to be right justified for one result of the
if statement, but left justified for the other result. Any ideas?
