    conditional formating not working

    Hi all..
    i want a cell to change from % format to $ when the value of another cell is 1 or 2!

    I do enter formula conditional formatting:
    =B6=1 do % formating...

    then for the same cell
    =b6=2 do $ formatting...

    I change the selection but the formatting remains the same!!

    Please outline the XL version you're using this with (better yet add this to your profile) - presumably XL2007 or later ?

    Post a sample file.

    works for me - I get 20% if D15 = 1, $0.20 if D15 = 2 else 0.2

    Are you running with Automatic Calculation ?
