    Color Fill Cell Based on Criteria

    Hello,

    Looking for help w/ color filling based on criteria. I would like to use something similar to the find and replace feature.

    example:

    Find all cells w/ 8 or less and fill cell w/ green color.

    some numers a not whole and have Decimals like: 7.25 and 6.50...just to list a few.

    Using Excel 2007.

    Thanks for your help.

    Frankee.

    Use conditional formatting, select all the cells you wish the format to work on, then click on Formats, COnditional Formatting (i don't know where this is on the ribbon in 2007), once you find it choose Cell Value Is, Less Than, then type 8 in the next box, choose your format colour and you're away!

    Look here for help using 2007.
    Not all forums are the same - seek and you shall find

    Simon,

    Thanks...it worked.

    I have another challenge. I share this same spreadsheet w/ another co-worker who has Excel 2003. Excel 2003 changes the colors of my rows.

    To fix, I currently select every other row and fill the color w/ my original color...not Efficient.

    I would like to use a tool that will allow me to select every other row and fill w/ color of my choice.


    Thanks Guys.
