Hello Polks,

It's been a while since I played with conditional formatting, I hope u guys can help me out on this. Basically I need to automate a cell between "OR" and "ORF". If the data on the adjacent cell is above 100000 then the cell reads "ORF" otherwise excel will pick "OR". If the # are entered first then it'll automate the OR or ORF. PLEASE advice. Your help is greatly appreciated.

OR 20495
ORF 100001



Cheers,
Edwin

    Assuming column B is the numbers, and you have no column headings, here's the formula for cell A1:

    =IF(B1>100000,"ORF","OR")

    Then you can copy the formula down column A.

    If you saying that you want the neighboring cell to read either "OR" or "ORF," then you don't need conditional formatting, all you need is a simple if-then statement: =if(cellref>100000,"ORF","OR")

    Well, he got 2 responses in less than 20 minutes. I think this is quite fast. I know there are "better" forums out there for non-audio related questions. However, many people know eachother here and trust their response. I just got some computer hardware help in another thread. As long as it's not a newbie asking across multiple forums, I think it's OK.
