Hi

Can anyone help me with this function:

I have a spreadsheet that keeps track of my truck inventory, as i add and
remove Items i log it in my Palm and it updates various cells, In Stock,
Used, Rec'd. I have a min value set in col E and if the value in col I is
<= then he work ORDER pops in Order column. This work fine but i want to be
able to see a different color for the OK or ORDER text:

=IF(I28<=E28,"ORDER","OK")

What I need to have happen is when the result that is generated is "ORDER"
then the text "ORDER" will be red, BOLD would be nice but red will do.

Can it also generate and email from the output in some form or another

Thanks

AJ

Say the "Order" column is column K, then select K2 to K100, and then:
<Format> <Conditional Format>,
And expand the left box and click "Formula Is",
And enter this formula:

=$K2="order"

Then choose your format, where you can select *both* red and bold.
Then <OK> <OK>, and all the selected rows will now display RED when "order"
is returned from your formula.
