I am having trouble adding conditional formatting to one cell. I have developed an attendance Grid. This is how we want it to function:


When column C "Accumulated points" reaches 20, highlight column C Yellow.
Column H and J or manual fields.
When column C reaches column H's number + 4 Column C Turns Orange
When column C reaches Column J's number + 4 Column C Turns Red

I have tried several different way to make this happen and in testing, it does not work properly.

Anyone have any ideas?

What is the shortcut key for Format Selection?
Ctrl+1 (the number one) will open the Format dialog for whatever is selected.
Perhaps these:

Not sure why you have the rules looking at column D when you said column C... that may be why they're not working for you?

I used the formula's you provided: if you enter 4 into any of the date columns, Column C turns red. The way we would like it to function is once accumulated points hit 20, it turns yellow and should remain yellow until accumulated points = E+4 then it should turn orange and remain orange until accumulated points = G+4.

If you remove the total points for first written and total points for second written, Accumulated points should remain yellow and it does not. If no points are in E or G, it should remain yellow until points are entered into E and then G.
