Default If then color of cell


Hi, I am fairly new to both excelling, but have been lurking here for a
while. I have used the search to find some good info about how to do
some if/then functions and the checkmark application. My next issue is
I would like the colors of the cells to change color if they have a
checkmark in them, like green in one collum and red in the next. Is
this posible and if so how?

Thanks for all your help.


Joe

I used the checkmark trick, how would I make the conditional formating
work for any value? Thanks for the help, I had never heard of
conditional formating before, it is a fun toy.:)
