  • I have typed =A8=M8 formula to compare 2 columns, these 2 columns are almost similar,

I got the results "True" and "False"

 

I want to highlight where all results of a formula is "False".

 

How-to go about it.

Hi @sumana,

to highlight the result of the values are false can be done by conditional formatting 

follow the below steps 

  1. Select the Column Range
  2. Go to Conditional Formating > New Rule
  3. A new window will open, from that select "Use a formula to determine which cells to format"
  4. Since conditional formating is accepting only value which TRUE, we need to change the logic of our comparison from FALSE to TRUE. there are other ways to do it, I like to do that simply use the NOT function to change the logic.
  5. Formula "=NOT(value1=value2)"
  6. Select the cell color
  7. OK

attached is the sample file for your reference.

Regards, Faraz Shaikh

Hi,

Thank you so much for your help, this "NOT" formula which you teach will definitely help me in time saving.

 

Once again thank you so much Faraz.

 

Kind regards,

Sumana
