How can you write a formula or macro to change the color of text in a cell if the math is incorrect. For instance if a number is negative or above a certain number and you want it to stand out in red.

Hello Aimee
Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.
I think you will be able to accomplish this using conditional formatting.
To apply conditional formatting:
1. Select the cells which you want the highlighting/colour to be applied to.
2. Go to Format - Conditional Formatting.
3. Set a condition, e.g. Cell Value is less than 0.
4. Click the Format button to create the formatting that will be applied if values in the selected cells if the criteria is met, e.g. select red colour on the Patterns tab. Click OK, and OK again to apply your condition to the selected cells.
Kind regards
Amanda
