I can see there is Yes in row 22 , 26, and 29.

What is the reason for row 22?
User
07/05/2018 - 07:40
Every 5000 miles service is needed, I want it to highlight at 5000, 10000....and then revert back to white once column D states "YES"
Excelchat Expert

21 or 22?

Please let me know the logic you are following for these?
Excelchat Expert

for 21,22 you are selecting 22. Where as for 26,27 it is 26?
User

ok.....We are recording the mileage on company vehicles, once they reach 5000 miles I need column C to highlight red until Column D states YES
Excelchat Expert

21 is 5002, which has crossed 5000?
User
07/05/2018 - 07:44
Correct, so it should highlight red. But the service was not completed until the next row
Excelchat Expert
07/05/2018 - 07:45
Why same logic is not applicable for 26, 27?
User
07/05/2018 - 07:46
the service was conducted early
Excelchat Expert

It is not falling under logic.
Excelchat Expert

Hope, service records are done at your end. But, for excel, it has to follow some logic. Either the first value of 5000 and 10000 or last values of 5000 or 10000.

I have updated the formula and conditional formatting based on the requirement.
