Conditional Formatting

[khaldoun]

Hi,
I was wondering if there's a way to format the results based on their value. For instance, in Excel, you can have the cell show red text when the value is for example "No GOOD" and show green text if the value is otherwise.
Can this be done in Mathcad, and if so, how?
Thank you.

Richard have you tried your worksheet on a W8.1 OS?

[RichardJ]

No, I haven't. Are you asking because you know there's a problem?

Yes. A lot of the worksheet doesn't work when opening on 8.1.

In the worksheet "Conditionally formatted result.mcd.zip" that I posted above, would I be right if I guessed that the first version of the control does not work, but the second one does?

Neither for me. I receive multiple error messages (failed to launch server) which stalls my machine. Whenever I scroll up and down the worksheet the error messages start again.

That's why I am always a slow adopter of a new OS
