When oyou select "Conditional Fromatting" a box will appear. You can set
either "Cell value" or formula is. In your case select "cell value" tab to
the drob down list and select equal to or greater than for your condition.
Then select format. This gives you the option of changing the border color,
font color, or background color if a condition is met. You can use up to
three conditions in the method. Just lay with it a bit-its quite simple.
Good Luck
