Hi,

I would like to format my numbers this way:

> 0  --> Green
= 0  --> Black
< 0  --> Red

How can I do that?

Thanks!!

Go to Format->Conditional Formatting... set your specs and click the format
button to format the text the way you want. You will do a seperate one for
each color. Select the entire sheet first though (CTL-A)

That will certainly work, but is somewhat more resource intensive than
using Custom Formatting.
