Hello,

I am putting a simple equation into a cell to return a result in the
cell. Is there anyway to make the cell color turn a color ("green")
when a specific value is calculated?

For example, the calcuation is doing a percent calcuation. I want the
cell color to be green if the percentage is greater than 50% and red in
color when the percentage value is below 50%...Any advice??

This is the calculation that I have in the cell: =(C4-D4)/((C4+D4)/2)

Thanks in advance for any advice...

Mike

Use Conditional Formatting.
