That would bring us back to the 3 is your limit issue.

In that case, you'll need some Visual Basic code. May want to ask in the
programming section to see fi they can give you some nice code to use to
accomplish this.

If i ignore condition 2 the data validation 'Yes/No' (column AE) changes to
orange because a 3rd cell is populated with no format unless there is a
formula to ignore Condition 1 if 'No' is selected!

Can you not ignore condition 2? Format the column as no color. Then, if
AE10="No", it wouldn't change, so no need for that conditional format, and
you'd have 3 to use.

Please note, you can only have 3 conditions, so there is no way to perform a
4th.

That is my point,

i already have 3 Conditions, i cannot just 'enter there & select colour to
orange'

there is no option for this!

B10=3
select you color to orange

Sorry 'B10=3' should format to Orange!!

Hi,
The problem with what you want to achieve is that you have already give a
condition to cell B10=2 (Condition 1). you stablish you wanted to be red

If this was helpful, please click yes, thanks

I currently have 3 conditions for a column of cells, as an example;
Condition 1 Format is Red =OR(B10=2,AE10="Yes") AE10 is 'Yes/No' dropdown
Condition 2 Format is 'No Colour' =AE10="No"
Condition 3 Format is 'Green' =B10=1
I need Condition 4 to be 'Orange' with the formula as =B10=2
I have '=COUNTA(AC7,AD7,AE7,AH7)' in column B.
Can anyone help?
