Hi All,

I have a column that shows percentages. The percentages will start at a high number, then slowly dwindle, and then at some point, the percentage will start to go back up.

Is there any way to write a conditional format that will highlight the first percentage that increased from the value of the cell above it?

Essentially I am trying to find the inflection point in my data set. Thanks so much for any help!
 

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
under conditional formatting
select the range say
H2:H100
then use a formula
=H2>H1
