    Conditional Formatting using cell from another worksheet

    I have a series of worksheets that refer to a "master" worksheet for
    constraints. I want to be able to change the color of a cell on a worksheet
    "P1" based on a value in a cell on the "Master" worksheet.
    Example:
    If !P1J15>='Master'J15 BlueText, otherwise RedText

    The Conditional Formatting says I can't use a formula reference to a cell in
    another worksheet. Need help.

    You could name the range , then in the conditional format enter =NamedRange instead of Sheet!range
    Should work

    Well Done! It works.
    I named the cell on the Master worksheet and inserted the =rangename and it
    worked perfectly. Thank you so much!
