#N/A
 

Can you give an example of what you're doing for your conditional format and
what's happening? I'm having a hard time envisioning a problem with
conditional formats and #N/A, if the CF is written properly.

Some of my cells have #N/A in them because one of the required lookups in
missing in some rows.
The problem I am having is when I try to set up Conditional Formatting for
the values in that column. It will not work if the selected range runs over
top of that #N/A value.
Is there a way around this problem? I would just a soon that it overlook the
#N/A value.

#N/A
 

I am using a three color arrow style

The rule type is: Format all cells based on thier values
Format style is: Icon Sets
Green up arrow when value is 0 Number
Yellow arrow when <=0 and = 0
Red down arrow when <0

Thank you!

1. Are you using 2007 or 2003?

2. Can you explain your second condition? If condition A is "" and
condition C is "<", wouldn't that only leave "=" in the middle? or are you
trying to color a multicell range based on all of the values in that range
being above, below (or mixed) compared to a target value?

3. If you are coloring a cell at a time via conditional formatting, you can
meet your criteria even in 2003. Set your default cell color to green, then
set your first condition to formula =iserror( ) and use that condition to
turn the cell white. then apply your conditions 2 and 3 with yellow and red.
Anything left over is green by default.

HTH,

1. I am using 2007
2. Yes I am wanting values greater than 0 to show green arrow up, values
less zero to show red arrow down, and values 0 to show nothing.
