And on this, when its get the 3 first contents sometimes it gets the H, and i don't know how to get rid of the H without the substitute formule
 

Excel Facts

Workdays for a market open Mon, Wed, Friday?
Yes! Use "0101011" for the weekend argument in NETWORKDAYS.INTL or WORKDAY.INTL. The 7 digits start on Monday. 1 means it is a weekend.
The result of your formula will be text.
If you coerce it to a number, it should work.

Try this:
Excel Formula:
=SUBSTITUTE(E3,"H","")+0

Solution
What's in column E?

It looks like your column F is not numeric but numbers stored as text. Your conditional formatting rules are based on numbers.

Change your formula in cell F3 to =--SUBSTITUTE(E3,"H","") and the result will be a number. Then your conditional formatting should work.

It is just a different way of coercing it to a number.
There are various ways of doing it. You could add zero like I did, multiply by 1, or do -- (which is just a double-negative sign).

I used to use +0 because it made sense, until someone told me that the double negative was somehow faster or computationally more efficient.
