So each one has a minimum threshold and I can this highlighting here so instead of less than 50 I can say. So I have another column here that shows the minimum amount because what's too low for apples in the inventory may be different than for peaches. Now let's say if you want to have that Conditional Highlighting depend upon what's in another cell. Like in this case maybe the inventory is too low. This helps you see something, a problem or an issue, that you need to address inside of your spreadsheet. So the value here changes what the formatting looks like. But if I were to change this number here to something greater than 50 it's not red. and I can choose some highlighting things to be here including custom style. For instance, I can select this cell here and if I go to Format, Cell I can hit Conditional Highlighting, add a rule and say something like - if this number is less than 50 then. Conditional highlighting will change the formatting of a cell based on the contents of the cell. So, let me first talk about what Conditional Highlighting is.

The general technique that you will need to use is to first decide on the block of cells that you want to have the same CF, then select all but the first row of that block and DELETE all the CF using "Clear rules" "Clear Rules From selected cells".
