Conditional Formatting color doesn't show up: 90%

[Stu]

I have a cell formatted to show a number as percentage and the conditional
formatting rule says Between 0.9 and 1 will be green. 0.9 is showing up no
color
but any value from .91 - 1 shows up green. Should "between" .9 and 1 include
..9?
Is this a known bug?

Hi,
does the 0.9 come from a formula, if yes check it I think the result of the
formula is 0.89999 or something similar which is not 0.9

if this helps please click yes thanks

Yes its from a formula but its not set to round-up. Its just set to zero
decimal places

Hi,
if you have a number of 0.8989 and you set up to 0 decimal places it will
show as 0.9
Do something in a cell type 0.8989999 and then set it up to zero decimal

what you can do is to enter in the conditional formating 0.89 instead of 0.9

No, "between" doesn't include either of the two ends. If you want to include
0.9 and 1.0, do something like this:

Formula is:

=AND(A1>=0.9,A1<=1)

Optionally, you can make the conditional formatting formula is:

=ROUND(A1,1)>=0.9

This will just round it for you...

Works! . . Thanks

Hi,

Actually that is not correct. If cell A1 contains 0.8989 and you format to
0 decimal places you will see 1 , no 0.9.
