conditional formatting in MS Project
I need to use conditional formatting to change the colour of the font to white in the 'Cost' field if the figures is between 0-500.
I only want to format the "Cost" field and not the entire row
I would be greateful if someone genius can help me out with this.

Can't be done natively, but can be achieved with some VBA code. I've copied a sample i prepared previously which applies formatting to the flag1 column based on its value. A bit of tweaking should get it doing what you need. You'll need to run the code to refresh - it won't recalculate after each edit.
I hope that helps,
Andrew
