Default Conditional formatting rule precedence difficulties

I have three conditional formatting rules (in this order) that apply to a
20x20 array

1) If the cell values are 0, change the font color to white (essentially
"blanking" the cell)

2) If a certain cell value (say A2 - not in the array) equals 1 or 3, format
the array values as currency.

3) If that same cell (A2) equals 2, format the array values as integers.

The value of A2 changes based on which one of 3 radio buttons has been
selected. When I select the first or the third radio button, the value in A2
changes to 1 or 3 respectively and Excel 2007 dutifully formats the values as
currency. However, when I select the second radio button, the value in A2
changes to 2, but Excel does not format the array values as integers, leaving
them as currency instead. None of the "Stop If True" boxes are checked for
the three rules. If I switch the precedence of rule 2 and 3 (moving 3 up or
2 down), the opposite happens and the array values stay formatted as integers.

Can someone tell me how I can get the formatting to properly change based on
the value of A2?
