How to highlight the 5 lowest values in a column that exceed 1000
I am wanting to apply conditional formatting to a column of data to highlight the 5 lowest values that exceed 1000. I have not been able to find anything that works with over 2 hours of Google searches and trial and error. My data is in cells B18 through B67. Thanks in advance to anyone who can provide a solution.
I just had this issue and we fixed it by changing my theme color on my desktop. Under the control panel and appearance.. once I changed the color of my theme/background it changed they color of my "system" which changed the color of my formula bar in Excel.. very dumb but.. it worked...Juliano-Petrukio RetiredOldMan

=AND(B18>1000,B18<=SMALL(IF($B$18:$B$67>1000,$B$18:$B$67),5))
With a little help from Chat gpt this formula for conditional formatting works in my sample file.
