Since I can't mask/apply sufficient conditional formatting to highlight a improper SS, I've parced it out into various columns and then was applying CF to each particular column. However, when applying CF to the row it doesn't see the 'number' as it's actually a calculation… Is there a way for it to focus on the cell contents rather than the VARCHAR? (e.g., for SS Prefix, the conditional formatting would read 'IF SS Prefix is <100 OR >999 OR not a number the apply this format to the Social Security Number' For some reason, it's not seeing 548 I believe it's seeing the formula that is producing the 548 '=MID([Social Security Number]@row, 1, 3)' Is there a better way to have it focus on the 548 that's in that cell??
