Odd and even number with conditional formatting

[snekkis]

Please, can someone help me with this one:

I have a cell containing a 11 digit number. I would like to give another cell a conditional formatting based upon the 3rd digit from the right in this 11 digit number, or 9th from the left if you like. The formatting should be one for odd number, and one formatting for the even.

Thanks!

Conditional Formating -

try this formula
(if your value is in column A)

=[FONT=&quot]ISEVEN[/FONT](Right(A2,3))

=iseven(mid(a1,9,1))

Correction:

=iseven(mid(a1,9,1)+0)

I've tried former and latter function, but there is a non consistency in the formatting in both of them. I don't get it. Here is a link to one example of mine. I will delete the link when this is solved

Maybe this:
=MOD(MID(A1,9,1),2)=0

I've tried former and latter function, ..

.. but your sample file only seems to demonstrate the former, which doesn't exactly address your request as I understand it.
Post #3 {& the corresponding ISODD()} work for me.

Still not working, but if this works on your end, it has to do with my Norwegian Excel version. I've put in the equivalent formula in Norwegian, and I believe it has something to do with that. I have English Excel at home, will try there.

Thanks!

Conditional Formating is useing local language.

find "IsODD", "IsEven", "Right", "Mid" and use it in your version.

also You may have different delimiter - we are useing comas here but you may have pipes "|" od semicolons ";" as delimiter.

Ex.

Right(A1;3) instead of Right(A1,3)

(in my case it is semicolon ";")

Two things:

First you have applied the formatting to the whole of column B, so you have to use A1 in the formula, not A2.
Second, the formula is testing the last three digits, not just the third to last digit.
