Re: Conditional formatting

[Tomasz Borek <tomasz borek gmail com>]

Incredibly I missed this until today (where I found this online) and was certain it went without a reply. Apologies Jean. Je suis très désolée!

Here are an image and a sample.

B1 should be red. C1 - yellow. Etc. I've just put one rule there so far, the cell >= F7 => make background green.

Problem is, this rule is like stated only for B1. For C1 it's G7, for D1 it's H7 etc. How to stop the progression? I want my row uniformly formatted. Same conditional formatting for everyone.

For column it also progresses, though differently. And I also would like to know how to format the columns uniformly.

I don't know of any way to retrieve format related information from a
cell, but you can use the same test than the one used for the format, I
suppose.

It works for me. Not sure about what you did wrong. A minimal sample
showing the issue would help.
