Conditional formating-change color of cells over than one with for
Let's say in D55 on each sheet is a formula showing a cumulative total from
the prior sheets If the cumulative total in D55 is less than 40, I'd like cells in rows 1 through 49 to be green, if over 40, turn the cells red. In other words, can I make the condition formating dependant on a totally different cell? |

Yes you can, in all the cells you want to conditionally format use the
'Formula' option and enter =$D$55<40 and format as you require, then you have two options. If you want the cells to be of no colour if they are empty, use 'Add' and in the second condition use 'Formula' again and enter =$D$5540, formatting again as necessary. If there will always be a value of some kind in them, just format them red or green as you wish in the usual way and the conditional formatting will change them if the condition is met. If you choose the first option you need to decide what colour you want if the value is exactly 40 by using =$D$55=40 or whatever you choose, Regards, Alan. "carrera" wrote in message ...
