    You can leave out the >0, CF will treat an error message as FALSE
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools

    using this method is it possible to highlight a range of cells if the main cell is 100%?

    For example i have a master spreadsheet with values pulled from other workbooks (linked) and i want to highlight certain cells if the main cell is 100%
