    text altering conditional formating

    Hi All,

    How can we make a conditional formatting that add an identification to a number if it meets certain criteria or multiple criteria?
    It is related to significance testing, where I have t-test tables as follows:

    Event CAAR t-test
    (-1, 0) 2.60% 0.279
    (-2, 0) 3.90% 0.418
    (-3, 0) 5.44% 0.583
    (-4, 0) 6.92% 0.742

    and I want it to display as
    Event CAAR t-test
    (-1, 0) 2.60% 0.279
    (-2, 0) 3.90% 0.418 c
    (-3, 0) 5.44% 0.583 b
    (-4, 0) 6.92% 0.742 a where a, b and c can only appear if the number is at a certain threshold or matches with a value in another

    cell. or a,b, and c can be replaced bt *, ** or ***

    the final result will look as in the attachment.Untitled.png

    You cannot modify the contents of a cell with conditional formatting.
