The 3 formulas are all given clearly in my response? You simply apply it in
the CF using "Formula Is" as conditions 1, 2, 3 (it can be placed in any
order as the checks are mutually exclusive, no overlaps, no gaps). The
colour indicated is what you would then choose as the trigger format. This
formulas route is the nuts and bolts way of getting it done, and it'll pay
you dividends to grasp it.
