    Need to Color Code Percentages

    I've done it before and now can't remember. I tried using conditional formatting and it's not working. I want to make anything under 0% red and everything >= 0% green. Thanks for any help.

    CF is where you would do that.

    1st format all cells red, then go into CF Choose New Rule/Use Formula

    =A1>=0 format fill GREEN
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)

    Worked fine for me
    You probably did not remove the absoluting from the cell ref =E2>=0 not =$E%2>=0
