Dynamic Conditional Formatting
I have a table where there are multiple rows:
Question OveralRate Male Female PNTS
xyz 44% 45% 55% 30%
xyz2 38% 51% 32% 31%
I want to use conditional formatting for each row separately based on its OveralRate.
This is using Formatting based on cell values. I am using 3 point scale where the midpoint is OveralRate. The coloring determines then how far Male Female and PNTS are from the OveralRate - for each row separately. Colors in row xyz question will be based relative to 44% and xyz2 relative to 38%. Easy to do for a couple of rows manually but how can I quickly do it across 100 rows.
Thanks!

=((C2<$B2-3)*(C2>=$B2-6))+((C2>$B2+3)*(C2<=$B2+6))This is the rule for conditional formatting for Overall rate +/- 3 and +/-6 in the attached example file.
=(C2<=$B2+3)*(C2>=$B2-3)This is the rule for conditional formatting for Overall rate +/- 3 in the attached example file.
Is this what you are looking for?

- ok, worked it out. thanks!
You are welcome.
- if I wanted to get into the boundary between C2 and B2 of 0.01 to 0.03 and then from 0.04 to 0.06 I would have to
=(C2<=$B2+0.01)*(C2>=$B2+0.03)
=(C2<=$B2+0.04)*(C2>=$B2+0.06)
do I understand it correctly?
