Hi,

Just wondering if it is possible to have a 4th, or 5th, or any amounts of
conditional formatting. I am feeling very restricted with the bog standard
three conditional formats.

Thanks.

Try this link:

to get up to 6 formats. Only works with numbers.

Hope this helps.

Or, if you want even more, try this free add-in download from Bob
Phillips:

which will give you up to 30.

Hope this helps (further).

One way


'-----------------------------------------------------------------
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
'-----------------------------------------------------------------
Const WS_RANGE As String = "H1:H10"

On Error GoTo ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = False
If Not Intersect(Target, Me.Range(WS_RANGE)) Is Nothing Then
With Target
Select Case .Value
Case 1: .Interior.ColorIndex = 3 'red
Case 2: .Interior.ColorIndex = 6 'yellow
Case 3: .Interior.ColorIndex = 5 'blue
Case 4: .Interior.ColorIndex = 10 'green
End Select
End With
End If

ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

'This is worksheet event code, which means that it needs to be
'placed in the appropriate worksheet code module, not a standard
'code module. To do this, right-click on the sheet tab, select
'the View Code option from the menu, and paste the code in.

In XL 2007, yes. In previous versions, no.
