A1=the name of an employee, defined name is "Suspect" A2= an amount of money, defined as "MaxLoss" B1:B8 is a column of money defined as "Shortages" C1:G8 is a range of employee names defined as "Associates"
if the money contained in MaxLoss is less than the amount in column of Shortages and the "Suspect"'s name is contained in the Associates range then do something(bold, red, flashing etc) The intent is to match an employees name to shortages using conditional formatting James $57.20 Grace Ronnie Mernalyn Irene 0 -50 $4.91 Julie Jocelyn Tiffany Ryan Mark $22.50 Grace Ronnie James Irene Mernalyn $(0.78) Julie Tiffany Ryan Mark 0 $50.06 Grace James Mernalyn Irene 0 $2.65 Julie Tiffany Ryan Mark 0 $24.28 Grace 0 0 0 0 $(373.20) Julie Jocelyn Ryan 0 0 What should the statement be?
