From: Mike H on 6 Apr 2010 18:08 Hi, These 2 conditional formats should not conflict provided =$E1="Pending" Is the first CF condition. You then click ADD and enter your second condition. See my other post about calculation -- Mike When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the question.

You seem to be happy, glad I could help -- Mike When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the question.
