You and Jacob didn't observe that the condition is "ANY cell in a range"!

Hi Stefi,
I think the answer provided by Mr. Jacob and by myself is right. In my post i have clearly mentioned that select the range before applying the conditional formatting. -------------------- (MS-Exl-Learner) -------------------- "Stefi" wrote: You and Jacob didn't observe that the condition is "ANY cell in a range"!

The question was "... set the background colour of a cell ... if the value
of any cell in a range ...". For me it means to set the color of ONE cell depending on the values of several cells. Yor solution sets the color of a range of cells depending on the cells own values. The OP shared this interpretation! Regards, Stefi Ms-Exl-Learner ezt *rta: Hi Stefi, I think the answer provided by Mr. Jacob and by myself is right.

I think that you'll find that Stefi has done rather more "MS-Exl-Learning"
than you have. Your condition will turn the cell red only if the content of THAT PARTICULAR CELL is greater than 110. The OP said that the requirement was to turn the cell red if the value of ANY CELL IN THE RANGE is greater than 110. -- David Biddulph "Ms-Exl-Learner" wrote in message ...

Sorry I misread the post..
Stefi/Mike Just the below will do as conditional formatting returns true only if the below formula returns more than 0. =COUNTIF(A1:A10,"110") If this post helps click Yes --------------- Jacob Skaria "Stefi" wrote: You are welcome!

Mr. Stefi & Mr. David thanks for both of you for indicating my mistake. In
fact I didnt notice the word IN A RANGE IS GREATER THAN. After seeing both of your replies, I come to know that my post is not suitable for the question.
