Imagine I have a table like this: | A | B | C ————–

  • 0

Imagine I have a table like this:

   | A | B | C 
 --------------
 1 | 3 | 6 | 5 
 2 | 5 | 5 | 7
 3 | 2 | 3 | 3

I want to:

  1. Compare the values of the cells with the values of the cells above them
  2. Color the background of the cell depending on this comparison

So:

  • If I compare the value of A2 to A1, 5 > 3, A2 should have a background of red
  • If I compare the value of A3 to A2, 2 < 5, A3 should have a background of green
  • If I compare the value of B2 to B1, 5 < 6, B2 should have a background of green
  • If I compare the value of B3 to B2, 3 < 5, B3 should have a background of green
  • If I compare the value of C2 to C1, 7 > 5, C2 should have a background of red
  • If I compare the value of C3 to C2, 3 < 7, C3 should have a background of green

Any ideas on how to do such a thing?

Thanks in advance and best regards,

Meibrah

    To color the cells, select the range A2:C3 and choose from the home tab of the ribbon:

    Conditional Formatting|Highlight Cell Rules|Greater Than…

    with the settings shown, then repeat for Less Than… with Green Text.
