Hi,

I want to assign a number to a certain conditional format. When the
condition is true it should put a 1 in the cell and when the condition is
false a zero or nothing should be assigned. Anyone? I seem to make the wrong
code all the time.

Thanks,
Johanna

Use the same test that the CF uses, and return 1 for TRUE and "" for FALSE.

Uhmmm, yes well...

I used this formula in cell B52:

=IF(D52<=D51;"1";"0")

but then nothing happens...this formula is displayed as text in the cell...
It must be something really simple, but I just don't see it...

Change the format of the cell to General.

There is no need to put quotes around the numbers.
