Default Looking for assistance for an unusual conditional formatting probl

Select A1:E5
CFFormula: =A1=MIN(A1;A7)

Select A7:E11
CFFormula: =A7=MIN(A1;A7)

Regards,
Stefi

John C. ezt *rta:

There are two tables, say A1 through E5 and A7 through E11. I want to
compare A1 to A7 and color the minimum, compare A6 and A16 and color the
minimum, compare C1 to C7 and color the minimum, etc. I can figure out out
to write the first comparison, i.e.select A1 and A7, CONDITIONAL FORMATTING
CELL Value equal to =MAX(A$1,A$7), but how do I do the rest without
individually selecting A2 and A8 and doing the same thing, C1 and C7 and
doing the same thing, etc. Is there an elegant way to do this? And so I am
trying to compare apples to apples (cell to cell) in two tables. Any ideas?

Thanks for your consideration.

John
