    Need help with Conditional Formatting

    I have two projects I'm working on and needing to do the same function in both. My question is going to be centered around the smaller data collection.

    I have a table that corresponds to data points on a graph. K53:K57; L53:L57 are my data points. M53:M57 is my profit formula using the data points. N53:N57 I have listed a Y or N that it is or is not listed within the specific parameters I'm using. I would like to use conditional formatting for cells M53:M57 to highlight the highest profit points, but only format cells with corresponding 'Y' in L53:L57.

    I greatly appreciate the help!

    Can you post a SMALL sample file and show us what result you expect?

    A SMALL file will have about 20 rows worth of data.

    I've expanded the sample to all the data points I have for the graph, but it is not 20.

    "... highlight the highest profit points(?) ...."
    What determines the "s"? top ten? top 3?...?
