I am really new at this, How would I write the formula - if G2 equals F3
turn H3 red.


Thanks

In H3 use conditional formatting using a formula that says
=if(g2=f3,true,false) and format it red.

Re: equals

Select H3.

Format>Conditional Formatting>Formula is: =$G$2=$F$3

Format to nice red color.

Note: the $ signs will "fix" G2 and F3 as Absolute if that's what you want.

If you wanted to copy this to multi-cells, you may want different placement of
the $ signs.
