Conditional formatting

How do you copy conditional formats?
Does excel 2007 permit the use of a combination of operands in conditional formatting e.g greater than or equal to (>=) ? if yes how does it work?

Thanks

RE: conditional formatting

Hi Teju

Thanks for your question

To copy conditional formatting simply copy and then paste special to the target cell, selecting "Keep Source Formatting".

The Operands in conditional formatting are accessed through commands such as "Greater than or equal to" etc. Go to conditional formatting and select "New Rule". Then choose "Format only cells that contain".

Hope this helps

Regards

Stephen


RE: conditional formatting

Thanks.

In addditon to paste special, can the format painter also be used to serve the same purpose (i.e. copying conditional formating)? Is on method better than the other?

Regards

RE: conditional formatting

Hi Teju

This is in fact the method used by the format painter. The two are actually identical.

Regards

Excel tip:

Use the SUBTOTAL function in Excel

You can create subtotals in your spreadsheet using the SUBTOTAL function, which looks like this:

=SUBTOTAL(9,cell:cell)

9 represents the function being used (SUM), followed by the range of cells the function is operating on.

The neat thing about using the Subtotal function is that if you have used it several times in the same column or row, clicking on the AutoSum button at the end of the column or row will make Excel add only the results of cells containing the Subtotal function in that column or row.
