    Conditional Formatting only if a cell is not blank

    Good afternoon,

    I have created a March Madness Worksheet where in one tab I enter the winners as they advance and all other tabs with the members picks highlights in yellow if they win based on the input tab. I want to highlight the losers in red but not the cells where the game hasn't been played yet so it can't be as simple as IF(Sheet2!C7<>Sheet1!C7). I would appreciate any help with this.

    perhaps a sample sheet
    but you can use an AND

    if you dont want
    Sheet1!C7 if blank
    then - you dont need the IF

    =AND(Sheet2!C7<>Sheet1!C7, Sheet1!C7 <>"")
