    Conditional formatting based on certain critaria

    Hello Folks.

    I am looking a formula to conditional format two columns as per below criteria.


    if Column A is great than Column B , add red font color to Column B . However, if Column B is greater then add green font color.

    Regards,
    Shahmed

    Select B1. Set up the two rules:

    =A1>B1

    =A1<B1

    In the applies to box in each case, type B:B.

    No conditional formatting when the two values are equal then?

    Ensure you describe your problem clearly, I have little time available to solve these problems and do not appreciate numerous changes to them.

    It would appear not - not unusual, I think, with RAG ratings (which often omit the Amber). Easy enuogh to add a rule if required:

    =A1=B1
