    Red Green Amber Three Color Conditional Format

    Hi

    In cell J9 i use conditional formatting for if the result is under 75 the cell turns BLUE,if between 75 and 80 it is GREEN and above 80 it is RED......In merged cells E:K11 how can i use Conditional Formatting to say "OUT OF RANGE" or "IN RANGE" depending on what J9 displays.If J9 is under 75 and BLUE then merged cells E:K11 will be BLUE and say "OUT OF RANGE" , If J9 is between 75 & 80 and GREEN then E:K11 will be GREEN and say "IN RANGE" and if J9 is over 80 and RED then E:K11 will be RED and say "OUT OF RANGE"

    Thanks

    Use the formula section in Conditional Format, and use formula as below

    =$J$9<75
    =AND($J$9>=75,$J$9<80)
    =$J$9>80

    A dream is not something you see when you are asleep, but something you strive for when you are awake.

    It's usually a bad idea to say that something can't be done.

    The difference between dream and aim, is that one requires soundless sleep to see and the other requires sleepless efforts to achieve
