A while ago, I was able to write a formula that allowed me to use the "if"
function to format a cell a specified color. If the condition of the if
statement was met, the cell that contained the formula would turn the
designated color. I have no used this formula in a long time and can't recall
how to make it work. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

You'll find that option under Formatting-Conditional formatting.

In the first drop-down select "Formula Is..." and then enter your IF formula
in the editing box. Click on the Format button and select the options to
apply when the formula is TRUE
