You need to use conditional formatting to do what you want.

When you change Condition 1 dropdown to Formula Is, there will be an empty
text box to the right. Add it there. -- HTH RP (remove nothere from the email address if mailing direct) "fomula problems" wrote in message ...

shading a rowwhen a time is entered but no shading when 0 is e
Bob's explanation is accurate, so you're not following it *exactly*
Let's try again: From your example, select A1 to G4, then: <Format <ConditionalFormatting The window under "Condition1" displays "CellValue Is" by default. Click the small down arrow on the right side of that window to expand the options. Click on "Formula Is". This gives you a *single* window to the right, where you will enter Bob's formula: =AND($G1<"",$G1<0) Now, click on "Format", And choose a Pattern color and/or a Font color. Then <OK <OK You should now have what you asked for. -- HTH, RD --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please keep all correspondence within the NewsGroup, so all may benefit ! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- "fomula problems" wrote in message ...
