Conditional Formatting Based on If and Or
How can I set the conditional formatting of a A1 if B1 or C1 shows #n/a?
(B1 and C1 both contain formulae that will return #n/a until the required information is inputted elsewhere in the spreadsheet. Hence I want conditional formatting to highlight information that is missing) |

sorry I have been post and instead of OR as you ask so
=or(iserror(b1),iserror(c1)) regards Marcelo "luvthavodka" escreveu: How can I set the conditional formatting of a A1 if B1 or C1 shows #n/a?

Conditional Formatting Based on If and Or
This is a good start, however sorry I didn't clarify before that if b1 is
#n/a, c1 will be blank and if c1 is #n/a, b1 will be blank. How could I adapt this formula so the condition is that b1 OR c1 = #n/a, rather than AND?
