    Hello
    See the attached file. It has a formula to return the name of the threshold colour and conditional formatting to reflect the value.

    Hope this is what you're looking for.

    Hi
    Glad it worked. Change the formula in cell H2 to the following:

    =IF($C2>=$G2,"GOLD",IF($C2>=$F2,"GREEN","RED"))

    Anything under 93% should now return RED.
