In the attachment I set 2 rules for formatting-
All cells over 500 colors in yellow
And each cell has between 400 and 700 colors in blue.
The question is what happens with the cells that say 600, 700
They answer the 2 conditions and I want to set up
Let them see that these cells meet the two conditions.
The question of how to do this ??

You might set up a third condition for >500 and <=700 and colour it green for example?

Hi lea

If you set up a 3rd condition (like what Velouria suggested) then you will need to take into account which condition takes precedent first.

The Yellow or the Green? You will need to rearrange them correctly.

Maybe you can format these cells with YELLOW background and dotted BLUE patterns (instead of GREEN)?

Maybe you can also try a 2-tone color?

You will need to put the green condition first - I should have mentioned that.
