I am putting together a workbook with 52 sheets for the weeks in the year. In this workbook there are multiple columns for percentages on each sheet.

I want to be able to change the color of each cell based on whethernit increases (green) or decreases (red) from the same cell in the previous sheet.

I have the formula i.e. =IF(ISERROR(B4/D4),"0", B4/D4) to calculate my percentages but I don't know how to put the reference in for this change. Any help?

Excel 2007 has added support for cell styles, which I find very useful. I love it when I can change formatting in one place and the change propagates throughout the spreadsheet. I also love conditional formatting. Can the two be combined? Can I conditionally apply a cell style? >>> More
