Default Change Text Colour Of Lowest Value

hi
you can use conditional formating for this..
select cell A2 (or whatever you wish)
on the menu bar...
formatcoditional format.
Formula is......=A2=MIN(2:2).....pick your format.
then copy A2 and paste as formats across row 2 as far as you need.
this conditional format will look at all data in row 2 only.
you can then past as formats across row 3 and so on and the lowest value in
the row will be high lighted with your selected format.

Select A1 to C7, with the focus on A1 (colored white).

Then, from the Menu Bar:
<Format <Conditional Formatting

Change "Cell Value Is" to "Formula Is", and enter:

=AND(A1=MIN($A1:$C1),A1<"")

Then, click on "Format" and choose your Red font,
Then <OK <OK,

And you should be done!
