Conditional Formatting

[streetboarder]

I would like some help on the following:

Months and Quarters across the top.
Projected Volume (B14) = 5,000
Actual Volume (B15) =
% Variance =IF(B15>0,B15/B14-1,"")
Forecasted Staff (B17) = Set number
Required Staff =IF(B15>0,B17*B16+B17,"")

The forumla's seem to be working correctly. What I would like to do
know is put a conditional format on the Variance row. If Variance is
plus or minus 10% than highlight so it sticks out during a fast review.
If Variance is zero or 9% either way leave as is.

Addtionaly, I want to add a conditional format to the Required Staff
row. If Staff equals plus or minus .1 FTE (Full Time Employee) than
format accordinaly if .09 than leave alone.

Also, if I could add a final row to say "Staffing level is "over or
short" (depending on the result) needs review" that would be great
too.

Thanks,
Josh

The first thing is to use an if/or statment in the cell which says that if
the variance is either greater than 10% or less than 10% that the value is
shown in the cell. If the statement is false i.e., the values of the
variance is within the +/- 10% window then the cell is left blank "". Then
you format the cell using a conditional formating formal that if the cell is
not equal to nothing perform the bold bright highlighting you desire.

Any chance you can show me one formula and I can figure out the other
one from there. I now know how to use If Statements but haven't used an
If/or before.

Thanks,
