Well, I should have tried it before posting as I thought that might be
the case, but the error message says it all - you can't use a
reference to another worksheet. However, if you define the named range
Table1 as '2006 All Clients'!$A$7:$A$4482, then you might be able to
use:
=NOT(ISNA(MATCH($A8,Table1,0)))
as your criteria, but again, I haven't tried it myself.
Hope this helps.

Here is the criteria i used in conditional formatting:
=NOT(ISNA(MATCH($A8,'2006 All Clients'!$A$7:$A$4482,0)))
i get an error message that says "you may not use references to other
worksheets or workbooks for conditioal formattig criteria"
have i done something wrong?
thanks for your response

You will need to select Formula Is rather than Cell Value Is in the CF
dialogue, and use this formula:
=NOT(ISNA(MATCH($A56,'2006 All Clients'!$A$7:$A$4482,0)))
then choose the background colour you would like for this condition.
This assumes that cell A56 is the active cell when you click on the
Format | Conditional Formatting menu.
Hope this helps.

i have a vlookup formula as follows:
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP($A56,'2006 Top
40'!$A$8:$B$470,2,FALSE)),IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP($A56, '2006 All
Clients'!$A$7:$B$4482,2,FALSE)),"0",(VLOOKUP($A56, '2006 All
Clients'!$A$7:$B$4482,2,FALSE))),(VLOOKUP($A56,'20 06 Top
40'!$A$8:$B518,2,FALSE)))
Now - i would like to add conditional formatting so that if the result came
from the middle vlookup - the font color would be different - is this
possible?- Hide quoted text -
