Conditional formatting allows cells to be formatted differently depending on their values or formulas. Formatting can change based on a value being less than or greater than a number, or based on a custom formula comparing cells. Examples include highlighting cells that are less than 10 red, formatting based on another cell's value using a formula like IF(A1>22, TRUE, FALSE), and other common conditional formats like highlighting duplicates, expired dates, or alternating row shades.

- 2. What is Conditional Formatting? • Conditional Formatting (CF) is a tool that lets you format a cell or range of cells, and have that formatting change depending on the value of the cell or the value of a formula. • For instance, when the value of a cell changes to be less than 10 it could a appear in Red.
- 3. Using Formulas • Add custom formula to cells to decide which format should be applied. • The advantage of using a custom formula in the format condition is that it allows you to change the format of a cell based upon another cell. • For example IF(A1>22, TRUE, FALSE)
