Cape,

Select all cells in e

Goto menu Format>Conditional Formatting
Change Condition 1 to Formula Is
Input the formula =(OR(AND(A1=23,B1=23),AND(A1=15,B1=15),AND(A1=4,B1=4))
Click the format button
Select the pattern tab, and click red
OK out

That should do it.

The numbers do not exsist. I need a truth table or someway of having th
different condition to equal the numbers. then have it > a set numbe
in another row. the numbers that are greater than the conditions, th
background needs to be red. Sorry for not explaining it thoroughly
