Conditional Formatting

How to get a cell formatted to a specific colour based on certain plus or minus figures

RE: Conditional Formatting

Hello Charlie,

Hope you enjoyed your Microsoft Excel Advanced course with Best STL.

Thank you for your question regarding conditional formatting.

All positive numbers are greater than zero and all negative numbers are less than zero. Select the data that requires conditional formatting and from the Conditional Formatting button use Highlight Cells Rules followed by Greater Than... Insert a Zero then choose your colour. Repeat the process, only this time use the Less Than option.

I hope this resolves your question. If it has, please mark this question as resolved.

If you require further assistance, please reply to this post. Or perhaps you have another Microsoft Office question?

Have a great day.
Regards,

Rodney

Excel tip:

Change the default location for opening and saving spreadsheets

If you are always opening spreadsheets from and/or saving documents to a specific location that is not My Documents, save time by setting this folder as the default for opening files from and saving files to.

Here's how:
1. Go to Tools - Options.

2. Select the General tab.

3. Enter the pathname of the folder you wish to make the default in the Default File Location box (hint: it will be easier to use Windows Explorer to navigate to this folder, then copy and paste the pathname from the address bar at the top of the Windows Explorer screen).

4. Click OK.

You have now changed the default folder for opening and saving spreadsheets.
