Program Description		Do you want to make your Excel data easier to interpret and save time doing it? Use Excel’s conditional formatting feature! Conditional formatting applies a defined format to cells that meet specific criteria. These formats might include a different background color, font color or border. The goal is to make important information stand out so it can be easily found, such as low test scores, high test scores, or amounts over budget. Doing this manually can be time consuming. Conditional formatting automatically updates when a cell meets defined criteria. Learn how to apply conditional formatting to your data.
