hi all, i would like to ask how can i amend my issue.

A1 is used to enter a time to color B1:B100 by conditional formatting which is greater than A1
i've manual changed the format both are "hh:mm", while i always get stuck in column B with format "date time" like "8/10/2019 20:15", thus i cant get the answer.

thanks all

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.

But don't you ask to color cells when the time value is greater than the time value in A1 ...??

A1 is used to enter a time to color B1:B100 by conditional formatting which is greater than A1
Could show exactly the result you want!

If you don't want the cell in column B to be colored when value is the same as A1
use
=IF(TRUNC((B1-INT(B1)),3)>TRUNC(($A$1-INT($A$1)),3),TRUE,FALSE)

Oopsie: Forgot to change the formula to US settings. I'm using the Finnish ( / European ?) version where the delimiter between the parameters is ";". Replace them with commas and it should work:

=ROUND($A$1-INT($A$1),11)<=ROUND($B1-INT($B1),11)


I'm using 11 decimals here. That's a fraction of a second so in most of the cases something like 5 or 6 would be close enough (=roughly one second).

i've tested this one, great like PCL, but i still dont get it, why it doesnt work even "=" added in the formula when i enter the time which is column B has it also
see B7, B12

i want it same when i enter the time in A1, so i use ">="
however, when A1 is lesser than B, still colored. confusing and mess you all, i'm so sorry
PS: B7, B12 still color if A1 is 20:29

Yes, because B will be colored when B'values are greated than A1

PS: B7, B12 still color if A1 is 20:29
Yes,
B7 = B12 = 20:30 which is greater than A1
Where is it wrong ???
