    Conditional formatting

    Just a quick one. In column A I have a list of targets. In Column B I have a list of actuals. What I need is if the actual is greater than the target, I want the adjacent cell in C to turn green, if its less than the target then I need it to turn red.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Kind regards,

    Om.

    Use =$A1>$B1 (for green) and =$A1<$B1 (for red) in conditional formatting: Use formula to determine which cells to format
