    Conditional Formatting

    i need a formulae that will make conditional formatting do the following.

    if column k has a value of 5 or more than column I in the corresponding row
    will turn red unless there is a value in the corresponding cell in column J.

    how can this be done?

    RE: Conditional Formatting

    If I understood well the verbal condition, apply this formula:
    =AND(OR(K1=5,K1>I1),ISBLANK(A1))

    Try the formula

    =AND(K1>I1+4,J1="")

    Re: Conditional Formatting

    no neitrher response seems to make sense when i read them, it should be
    something along the lines of the following.

    k8>4, J8>" "

    however i don't know the correct syntax to acheive this outcome.

    RE: Conditional Formatting

    Sorry, I mistyped the formula, the correct one is
    =AND(OR(K1=5,K1>I1),ISBLANK(J1))

    i will try the formulae but i don't understand it. this is how i read it.

    =AND(OR(K1=5,K1>I1),ISBLANK(J1))

    k1 is = 5 or greater than I1. and theres a test to see if J1 is blank. now
    the J1 test thats great but i don't need to know if K1 is greater than I1 i
    just need to know if K1 is greater than 4.

    i tested your formulae and it appears to work when configured as follows.

    =AND(OR(K8=5,K8>5),ISBLANK(J8))

    thanks for all your help i am most grateful.

    RE: Conditional Formatting

    Stuart,
    your condition was
    "if column k has a value of 5 or more than column I in the corresponding row"
    In my interpretation in consist of two parts:
    1.if column k has a value of 5: K1=5
    2.or more than column I in the corresponding row: K1>I1

    If the condition really is "K1 is greater than 4" then the formula is:
    =AND(K1>4,ISBLANK(J1))

    but in this case where is I1? This is another condition!
    Sorry if misundersanding is caused by my poor English!

    put this formula in cell I-8, then copy it down
    =AND(K8>4.999,ISBLANK(J8)) I think your responses were mislead
    because you used "than" instead of "then" in your first post.
