Microsoft Excel Conditional Formatting Essentials

In Microsoft Excel, Conditional Formatting makes it easy to highlight certain values or make specific cells easier to identify. It dynamically changes the appearance of cells or cell ranges based on conditions.

To put it in simple terms, you give Excel rules on when and how to format specific cells, and Excel will apply that formatting to these cells based on the conditions created in your rules.

It is one of the most simple, yet powerful tools in Excel spreadsheets.
