Conditional formatting
Difference
$ % Auto 1,813.00 Auto 1,663.00 -150.00 -8.27% Boiler 280.00 Boiler 425.00 145.00 51.79% Crime 103.00 Crime 321.00 218.00 211.65% In the above example, how do I apply conditional formatting so the % change is a different colour if Auto increased or decreased more than 10%, % change cell to be red, if Boiler increased or decreased more than 10% than % change cell to be green, if Crime increased or decreased more than 10% than % change cell to be yellow, etc. |

Conditional formatting
Assume your % starts in F1 and the words Auto, Boiler... are in column C:
Highlight the data in column F and then Choose Format, Conditional Formatting, and change the first drop down to Formula is and enter the following formula: =AND(OR(F10.1,F1<-0.1),C1="Auto") Set a color under Format, then OK once, and then Add a second condition. This will work the same as above but change the word Auto to Boiler. Repeat up to three conditions. -- Cheers, Shane Devenshire "jostlund" wrote: Difference $ % Auto 1,813.00 Auto 1,663.00 -150.00 -8.27% Boiler 280.00 Boiler 425.00 145.00 51.79% Crime 103.00 Crime 321.00 218.00 211.65% In the above example, how do I apply conditional formatting so the % change is a different colour if Auto increased or decreased more than 10%, % change cell to be red, if Boiler increased or decreased more than 10% than % change cell to be green, if Crime increased or decreased more than 10% than % change cell to be yellow, etc. |

Thanks Shane, that works! Now I just need to figure out the process for
dealing with more than 3 conditions!

Not so simple, buy 2007! Excel 2003 will only handle 3 conditions. You
could write a macro to do it, but in 2007 there is no limit on the number of conditions. -- Cheers, Shane Devenshire "jostlund" wrote: Thanks Shane, that works!
