I have a similar question, only my problem is i want to evaluate A1 on tab1,
vs A1 on tab2, and apply a color pattern if A1 on tab1 ABS<1 and A1 on tab2 ABS1. How can I do this, as conditional formatting does not allow other tabs or files?

You need to specify the Sheet name in addition to the cell if it is not
on the same sheet eg Sheet2!A1 mturboman wrote: I have a similar question, only my problem is i want to evaluate A1 on tab1, vs A1 on tab2, and apply a color pattern if A1 on tab1 ABS<1 and A1 on tab2 ABS1.

You can refer to another sheet for CF only if you define a name for cell on
other sheet. i.e. defined name "apple" refers to =Sheet2!A1 Example........On Sheet1 in A1 CFFormula is: =A1<ABS(apple) Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Thu, 04 Feb 2010 08:20:31 -0600, Bob I wrote: You need to specify the Sheet name in addition to the cell if it is not on the same sheet eg Sheet2!A1 mturboman wrote: I have a similar question, only my problem is i want to evaluate A1 on tab1, vs A1 on tab2, and apply a color pattern if A1 on tab1 ABS<1 and A1 on tab2 ABS1.

Thanks for the reply Gord.
I do have a question though, is there an easier or better way to accomplish this, as I am currently looking to review about 1500 cells with this criteria on Tab 3 and looking to Tab 1 and Tab 2 to evaluate would be a lot of named ranges. Is there a better more efficient way that I can format the cell in Tab 3, using data in the same cell of Tab 1 and Tab2 to evaluate the color of the cell on Tab 3?

There is no easy way to CF a cell based upon the value of a cell in another
worksheet. Probably have to go with VBA Gord On Wed, 17 Feb 2010 15:24:01 -0800, mturboman wrote: Thanks for the reply Gord.

Thanks Gord. I don't know VBA, but I will take a look to see what I can find
out. "Gord Dibben" wrote: There is no easy way to CF a cell based upon the value of a cell in another worksheet.
