Conditional formating
 
I want some of my cells to automatically change color by conditional formating.

1 condition for coloring/formating is that a separte cell on the spreadsheet
contains text ... how do I set the conditions for this?

1 condition for coloring/formating is that a separate cell has a number
above 0.. how do I set the condition for this?

To use Peo's formulas select the cell you want formatted. Select conditional
formatting. Change from cell value is to formula is and add the formulas.
