Need Help With Conditional Formatting

[Guest]

I would like cell A1 to have conditional formatting set so that if the number entered is less than 100, the cell turns red. That part I have, but if the cell is blank, I do not want it to turn any color.
Can someone please show me how to porperly write out the formula to achive this?

Thanks in advance!

Select A1.
Activate Format|Conditional Formatting.
Choose Cell Value Is and Less Than, the enter the number 100 in the box next to the Less Than box.
Activate Format.
Select red as color on the Patterns tab.
Click OK, OK.

I think you need a formula for this Aladin. Change the Cell Value Is to Formula Is and enter the following formula: -

=AND(A1<>"",A1<100)

Where A1 is the cell with your data in.

That formula works great, but there is one other thing that I can't figure out. It also changes the cell to red if the value is over 100. How do I prevent that?

Thanks for all your help.

Randy

=AND(ISNUMBER($A$1),$A$1<100)

As Mudface noted, I failed to attend to your "but if the cell is blank".

That is exactly what I needed.

Thanks, guys.
