This document provides steps for using conditional formatting in Excel to format cells differently based on their values. It describes creating a table with target and sales data and a status column using formulas. It then explains how to change the font of the status column to Wingdings 3 symbols, and how to set up conditional formatting rules to color code cells with different statuses ("p", "tu", or "q") differently. The rules can be single cell rules or multiple rules to format multiple statuses with separate colors.
