Hi Joe

seems as you have the same problem as me with spelling "colour" and using an
international (read "US" loaded) forum :)

basically as i understand it, if the row that you want to start the
conditional formatting is say row two then make that the top row on the
screen first then
select the rows (using the row numbers) that you want to apply the
formatting to
then choose
formula is
type your formula making the column of the criteria absolute and enter the
first row number that the conditional formatting is to be applied to
(e.g. =$K250)
click on the format button - set the formatting as per usual - click OK
twice to apply the conditional formatting

Hope this helps
Cheers
JulieD
