    Hey Kevin. Cool video. How do you use conditional formatting for accounting. For example if I want to change the font color if the expense are greater than the revenue to red.

    Hi Kevin, thank you for the excellent videos. I want to change text color for "can" specifically for just these 3 letters only. However, when I set the conditional formatting, it is also highlighting other words that contain these letters. For example it also highlights "Canada". I don't want that, I just want the separate word "can" to be highlighted. Help!

    Hello Kevin, I am trying to create a spreadsheet that I can use to include 4 columns of test result readings, that individually I would like to colour correctly between ranges of data but also using all 4 columns of data to create a cell that will colour code the quality of the total readings. That sounds confusing to me even. In short I have 4 different signal readings taken during testing, each of them have their own pass fail range but all used together create a total system quality, which I would like to show the corresponding column as colour from our pass fail range? I have no idea of where to start with this?
