    Conditional Formatting of a cell based on values of other cells

    Hi Guys,

    I need help:

    Imagine 2 columns...

    The first has a rule that all cells with values above or equal to 80% will have a bronze background colour
    For the second column, I need to apply the same rule, but with an overriding rule like this: if the cell in the first column on the same row is 80% or higher then this cell being 80% or higher should be coloured gold.

    So in summary, I would have the following outcomes:

    column 1)
    cells less than 80% = no rule
    cells 80%+ = bronze

    column 2)
    cells less than 80% = no rule
    cells 80% or higher with less than 80% in previous column = bronze
    cells 80% or higher with 80% or higher also in previous column = gold

    Somebody please help.

    Thanks

    If these don't work, try posting a sample workbook with mock data.
