Hello,

I am struggling to do conditional formatting for a row.

It has several percentages from 0% to infinity.

I want everything below 100% to be red and everything 100% or above to be green.

There are some cells with dashes when the percentage is not available.

Any idea please?

Something like this?

ABCDEFGHI
2190%152%57%32%84%-111%71%176%
CF %
Cells with Conditional Formatting
CellConditionCell FormatStop If True
A21. / Formula is =AND(A2<>"-",A2>=1)Abc
A22. / Formula is =A2<1Abc

I have a similar question.

I have about 4K rows, and I want the conditional formatting to compare the values in a single row.

Is there a quick way to copy the conditional format? When I select all, it compares all values, which throws off my shading.

Example attached - I would like the conditional format to be like rows Alpha/Bravo. The rows below the space illustrate my issue.

edit: i cant figure out how to paste an image:(

My signature block below has a link that may help for posting sample data like I did above.
Or else, explain to us what the conditional formatting should be doing in each row.

Thanks @Peter_SSs

If you had the CF applied to just row 1 (or rows 1 & 2), place your cursor anywhere in the range that already has CF applied (eg cell D1) then go to
Conditional Formatting -> Manage Rules... -> Applies to: Edit this range from (say) =$B$1:$N$1 to (say) =$B$1:$N:$11 -> Apply -> OK
