Conditional formatting between worksheets?
 
I'm trying to change to fill color of a cell in 1 worksheet if the value of
another worksheet is greater than or equal to a certain value. I'm using
conditional formatting with FormulaIs and the normal If "worksheet cell"
whatever

Help please.

Thanks in advance

Conditional formatting between worksheets?
 
Both WBs must be open, and you must assign a name to the cell / range in the
other WB for this to work.

No help here. I know how to assign workbook or worksheet names and cell
numbers to formulas. I said between worksheets but have since found that you
cannot use conditional formatting between different worksheets or workbooks.
Had to ask a different question.

I'm sorry, I thought I read "workbooks".

But, in either case, you *CAN* use CF between worksheets and workbooks.

The common stipulation for both cases is that you must use a named range,
while for the workbook scenario, the fact that they must all be open is an
added requirement.

To use between WSs, just assign a name to the range (cell) that you wish to
use as the criteria, say something like "rng1" (no quotes).

Then, in the CF dialog, use "Formula Is", with something like:

=rng1100
