Don't know if I am posting in right place, but will try again...
I am using Excel 2003 and it seems to only allow me 3 conditions per row where i am trying to color about 10 cells plus the one with the "X", with 7 different colors from cell a7-g7 containing an "X". If I place an "X" in say, D7, I want cells i7-v7 to change to red. Or if an "X" gets placed in F7, then cells i7-v7 turn blue. But I can only get 3 color changes per line using condition 1 as =$a$7 = "X", condition 2 as =$b$7 = "X", and condition 3 as =$c$7 = "X". But I need to do D7-G7 the same way with different colors. These all work great but not enough conditions for 4 more.
Is there another way?
Would adding a7<>'X' somewhere in this formula =$b$7 = "X" help and where would it go or be written?
If I had Excel 2007, would I be able to do this much easier?
