Hi

I have the following setup in my spreadsheet =(H3-C3)*24 and require this to
change the font RED when the calculation exceeds 2 hours.

Grateful of your help.

Use conditional formatting.

Via Format--Conditional formatting. When the cell value is 2, format the
font red.

I thought you said that the cell was in decimal hours is (a-b)*24
So why does it say 00:30 ?
