Try using the Subtotals feature.

Select your data
Goto the menu DataSubtotals

At each change in CODE
Use function SUM
Add subtotal to AMOUNT
OK

Default Excel 2002: How to condition format rows with empty cells ?

hi,
formula return values, they cannot perform actions such as copy, paste,
format cells or rows ect. sorry but a formula will not do what you wish.
You didn't provide information at to how the rows would be formated nor what
the formula was or what the results would be, so i would be hesitant to
suggest anthing except to look at conditions formatting. on the menu bar....
formatconditional formatting. you can set the format base on the results of
a formula.
sorry.

It seems that I've misunderstood your post.

You want conditional formatting!

What do you want the formatting based on?

blank, blank, number


Which cell contains the formula, C5 or D5?

Lets assume it's C5.

Select the range C2:C12
Goto the menu FormatConditional Formatting
Formula Is: =AND(COUNTA(A2:B2)=0,ISNUMBER(C2))
Click the format button
Click the Font tab
Set the font color to RED
OK out
