Default Conditional Formatting using 3 Traffic Lights Formula

Does anyone know how to get this to work using the 3-light conditional
formatting in Excel 2007 using the reference to another cell? I need it
pretty much the same way as listed above, but it is not working for me.

Here is the set up I currently have.

ROW 1 MTD ACTUAL BUDGET DIFFERENCE
ROW 2 120 120 130 -10

I want the 3-Light Conditional Formatting Formula to be used on the MTD
column with this formula set up below.

GREEN LIGHT = =D2=0
YELLOW LIGHT = =D2=(-3)
RED LIGHT

Why is this not working? Any and every bit of help would be most appreciated!

Thanks,

nathan
