Default Pivot table

hi Tiffany

It works fine for me with XL2007
I selected the range of data (within the PT) - my column was H.
I used the formula =$H4<0 and chose Format Red
Changing Page field from All to USA still showed negative numbers as Red.
Similarly, when selecting Canada, or switching back to All.

no. in a pivot table, there is report filter, where you put some fields
inside. e.g. I put country field. So in the country field, i select "ALL"
to
do my conditional formatting. However, when i change the selection from
"ALL"
to "USA", all the formatting are gone. Can tell me how to solve the
problem?

Thank you.

Hi Tiffany,
What do you mean with selecting pages, are different Pivot Tables, or
different design

i did but when i change my selection in page view, the format
disappear. how?
Actually i want number less than 0 to be in red. So regardless of what
page i
select, it will always show the negative figures in red.

thank you.

Hi Tiffany,
Highlight the cells you want to apply Conditional Formating, go to
conditional formating,new rule, use 2nd option "Format only cell
that
contain", in Edit rule choose cell value less than and enter 0 then
go to
format, Font, color, choose your color, click OK

if this helps please click yes, thank you

If you are using 2003 or previous conditional formatting do not
move
with the cells....

If this post helps click Yes
