Note: I'm sorry that that wasn't a good answer. Please hold on while I contact an expert.

Weegy: You might use conditional formatting to locate dates that meet a certain criteria (such as falling on a Saturday or Sunday), to call out the highest or lowest values in a range, or to indicate values that fall under, over, [ or between specified amounts. If a number is below zero, you may want to use conditional formatting to make it red. Or the same with above zero, you may want to make it green. ]
