Hello
This is a question solved earlier by etaf. But I am getting some problem. I need help to correct the formula as it is not working in some cases. Below is the image where the formula should match the condition. If the names in the B column are same one below the other and the amounts too are same with a maximum difference of 1/- more or less, then the rows shouldn't be formatted. Else it should be formatted
The top row may be less also then the below row. Whatever the case the difference between the two amounts is 1/- or less then it should show matched.

You Have to select your range for CF starting from A2, Not A1

See again my sample in Post #2, bottom, Cells with conditional formatting, range Starts with A2
No jtakw. It is still not working as I am expecting. I inserted a row in the top and entered the formula in the new rule to format the row. But...

Excel Facts

How to total the visible cells?
From the first blank cell below a filtered data set, press Alt+=. Instead of SUM, you will get SUBTOTAL(9,)
This is your sample from Post #9, using my CF formula, works for me.
Tell me which row is incorrect:

Your sheet is perfectly right. But when I am entering the same formula I am getting some wrong matches, like the fourth row is not a match, the 3rd row is a match. but it is showing the opposite. In many other rows, there is the same error.

You CF formatted A:F, which includes the First row, as I said, You Have to start with A2.

Select your range, Starting with A2.

I tried using the range without freezing but once I press apply it auto locks the cell.
=$A$2:$F$42

That shouldn't be a problem at all, as long as it starts with A2.

But I am not getting the perfect result you got. I am getting lot of wrong mismatches.
