Hi,
how can I write a macro to do look for a value in a column, say column "C",
if it's greater than or equal to 250,000 then highlight that row (in any
colour), if it's less than or equal to 250,000, then also hightlight that row
(in any color). It will keep on finding value until the end of the row (when
there is a blank line).

Thanks.

Try conditional formatting.

Select all target rows, starting in row 1
Menu FormatConditional Formatting

Change Condition 1 to Formula is
Add a formulae of =$C125000
Select Patterns tab and choose a colour
OK
Click Add
Change Condition 1 to Formula is
Add a formulae of =$C1<=25000
Select Patterns tab and choose another colour
OK
OK

Hi,
I understand that conditional formatting can be used to do just that.
However, conditional formatting only allow different 3 conditions.
I guess the reason i'm asking for help with macro because through Excel
codes, I can add more conditions later on if I ever needed it.

Oh, thank you so much for the details..I will test it out.
On the side, I really like to start learning how to write program in Excel,
where would be a good start??
