Excel中基于另一列中的值的条件格式

Question

I have situation like this in excel:

Col1 Col2
3.4  1
5.6  0
4.6  0
8.7  1
10.1 0

I want to format Col1 based on values of Col2. I want to fill the background of Col1 with say green if corresponding value in Col2 is 1

I saw some examples of coloring where value>value in other cell. But none of this type.

Thanks

Here's how to do exactly what you say:

1. Select first cell in column A.
2. Select Conditional Formatting/New Rule.
3. Select Classic Style conditional formatting.
4. Choose Use a formula to determine which cells to format.
5. Make the formula: =$B1=1
6. Choose your formatting (as in green)
7. Choose the Format Painter
8. Select the column to apply the conditional formatting to all cells in that column. Note: some variants in terminology and location of options between versions of Word, but the basic functionality is the same.
