    Red Flag

    Help! I have a worksheet cell that contains the formula =B26/C26. I want the value of that formula to appear in red if the value is greater and 1.00 (as a flag). I've tried to add an IF statement to the formula but nothing I try works.

    Select the cell(s) and go to Format>Conditional Formatting and set a value > 1 then set your formatting to red font (probably bold). Does that work for you?
