Hey Team,

I am looking to do some conditional formatting on a Gantt chart for Prerequisites. I am using the styles "Good Bad and Neutral" from the styles tab.

Columns D E F G are manually assigned a number. I want the formatting to look at the number assigned to the cell, find the row associated with that number from column "B", and Check Column "I" for the the % Complete. If the percent is Less than 90% I want the formatting to show up "Bad". If its between 90% and 99% I want it to show up Neutral. If its 100% complete then I want it to be "Good". I also am looking to get this applied to the entirety of columns D E F G so it will still work if rows are added. So we might need something that states if cell value does not have a number than do nothing with formatting? is that possible?

Thanks for the assistance.

Can you AutoAverage in Excel?
There is a drop-down next to the AutoSum symbol. Open the drop-down to choose AVERAGE, COUNT, MAX, or MIN
Maybe something like this:

Select the entire column range D:G and apply the formulas. You'll have to change the lookup ranges though to handle adding rows.

Thanks so Much!

This is 99% what I'm looking for.

Is there any way to also color prerequisites red if the percentage = 0? Without causing the rest of the cells in the columns turning red since 0 also applies to blank cells. I tried changing it to >= Greater than or equal to and this obviously happened.

Excel Formula:
