Hello Everyone,

I am trying to use Conditional Formatting...

Our goal is to have clients with viral load results less than 200,

When a client's viral load lab result is greater than 200, there should be an X in front of the lab results (see below)

When a client's viral load lab result is 0 there should be an ! in front of the lab results (see below)

After I enter and apply my formatting rule, I see the Xs and !s, so I save the data, close the excel spreadsheet, then reopen it, the icons (Xand !) are gone....

How do I prevent this from happening? What am I doing wrong? Should I be using another feature?

Please post the exact Conditional Formatting rules that you are using.

When you re-open your sheet, are the Conditional Formatting rules still there?
What format are you saving the file in?

I tried to take a screen shot, save it as a pdf file, but am having trouble attaching it to my thread since it wants the URL?
