How do I do a conditional format for numbers

[Guest]

I want the cell to format "0.00%" if the value is less than 100 and format
"$0" if the value is greater than 100. Conditional format won't format
numbers.

Thanks

Try this custom formatting (in Format > Cells > Numbers (or similar))
Please notice the double quotes in "%". Try removing them and see,
what happens, when you enter various numbers in the cell.

[<100]0.00"%";[>=100]$0

Thanks for responding. Your suggestion works fine as far as the appearance
is concerned. The only problem is that it doesn't calculate as a percent
when the number format is %.

Can you help with this.

Thanks
