how to do the rest. Example
Cell "C" = Cell A minus cell B . Now what I want to do is this: if Cell C is
10 percent less than Cell D then text is Red, Bold, Fill is yellow. is this
Possible? Not very good at math functions.

select cell C2. Format - Conditional Format. Change first box to "Formula
is". In second box, input this:
=C2<0.9*D2
Click the format button, on text tab, select bold, and on pattern tab,
choose yellow.
Ok out.

(assuming you meant 10% less or more)

still a little confused. When you say format do you mean click on
conditional format tab or cell format . if conditional which tab next. Sorry
I need the Dummies version :)
