Change row color based on condition of celss
I would like to make the row color turn red based on the follow condition:
If the value in column P (all rows) is less than the value in column Y then I want to change the color of the row to Red. I know this is in condiitional formating but I cannot get it to work. I am a very basic excel user so am not familiar with all the ins and outs. Any help would be appreciated. -- Barb |

Change row color based on condition of celss
I tried this and didn't get the cells to change colors. This is what I have
the conditional formatting condition set as: Condition 1 Formula is ="IF$P3$Y3" the format selection shows all letters background Red. What did I do wrong? -- Barb "Bob Phillips" wrote: See http://www.contextures.com/xlCondFormat01.html -- HTH Bob Phillips (replace somewhere in email address with gmail if mailing direct) "B G" wrote in message ...
