Default Conditional Formatting problem


Basically what I want to do is make the IF statement I've made, green if
active and red if inactive...but stating that it has to be greater than
the number in cell A4 to be active thus green but less than the number
in A4 to be inactive thus red!

How can I do this?

Thanks a lot
From John

Under Conditional Formatting select use formula; then

Condition 1=if(A1A4,True,False) Pattern Green
Condition 2=if(A1<A4,True,False) Pattern Red

A1 is the cell you are looking for.

Hope that is what you are looking for

Default Conditional Formatting problem


I have a problem I try to use conditional formatting on a worksheet and
pick up a cell from another...and it says it has to be from the same
worksheet is this true?

So what do i need to copy past the cell from the other worksheet to the
worksheet I'm creating the conditional format?

Thanks
From John
