I've seen several threads on conditional formatting using traffic lights, but haven't seen how to include row labels with the traffic lights. Here is a snapshot of what I'm trying to accomplish. The formula in the R, Y, G is IF(X29>=0.00000000001,1,IF(F3<0,F3/-C3,IFERROR(F3/C3,-500))) and my formula in B3 is =IF(H3<-0.05,0,IF(H3<0,1,2)) where 0 is red, 1 is yellow, 2 is green. The conditional format applied to column H is Green = value >0; Red is a value <-0.05 and Yellow is between -0.05 and 0. The question is, How do I include the traffic light in Column B with the label in the same row? In this case, I'm looking for a red traffic light with the label Direct Labor in cell B2.[TABLE="width: 500"]
