I have been struggling to make use of the Conditional Formatting facility, but as yet haven't achieved an accurate result. I have worked, step by step, through the example, in OOo Help (which is a very simple one) many times, but the result that occurs is pure nonsense. I am perfectly prepared

John, I'm surprised at what you say. I have been using conditional formatting in a spreadsheet for some time and it works a treat for me. I'm using it under WinXP SP2 with OOo2.0.4. I also used it with previous versions with no problems, except for the fact that the number of allowable

I hope this helps. I think that your problem was using the values true, false and NA. You can solve this with some cheating. True is 1 and False is 0, by logics. Place True equal to 2, by TRUE()+1=2, same applies to False, it will be FALSE()+1=1 Now you will not have the problem with the zero
