Hi guys,

Ive been struggling with this...

I have a table with a range of values (AE6:AE15) for which I want to show data bars inside the cells. I want the data bar configuration to be the shortest bar to correspond to the largest value and viceversa. However, this column has both negative and positive values, and it would be great if I could have the negative values in red and the positives in blue. This is what I have tried so far... Any ideas??

Code:
<code style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-style: inherit;">Range("AE6:AE15").Select    Selection.FormatConditions.AddDatabar    Selection.FormatConditions(Selection.FormatConditions.Count).ShowValue = True    Selection.FormatConditions(Selection.FormatConditions.Count).SetFirstPriority    With Selection.FormatConditions(1)        .MinPoint.Modify newtype:=xlConditionValueLowestValue        .MaxPoint.Modify newtype:=xlConditionValueHighestValue    End With        For N = 6 To 15    If Cells(N, 31) >= 0 Then    Cells(N, 31).Select    With Selection.FormatConditions(1).BarColor        .Color = 13012579        .TintAndShade = 0    End With    Else    Cells(N, 31).Select    With Selection.FormatConditions(1).BarColor        .Color = 5920255        .TintAndShade = 0    End With        End If        Next
</code>
Thanks in advance!!
