Yes
Use "cell value is equal to" in conditional formatting.
You will have to ensure you use the required currency symbol ($ / â?¬) as you
enter the the amount in each cell ie
$12000
â?¬12000

The cell are preformated as accounting: either dollars ($) or (?) .
When I enter a number in a cell it will automaticcly have the sign shown.
Of course the cells contains different values.

Say A1 is formatted for $'s,
And A2 for ?'s.

In B1 enter:

=Cell("format",A1)

And copy down to B2.

B1 returns < C2 >
And B2 returns < ,2 >

SO ... conditional formulas such as:

=CELL("format",A1)="C2"

And

=CELL("format",A1)=",2"

should work for you for condition 1 and condition 2 formulas set with your
colored formats.

Works for some cells and doesn't work for other values in the range.
Is there anything special????
The condition is "and" in conditional formating which gives the impresion
that it sould fulfill BOTH conditions!!!

I don't follow what you mean when you say:
<<<"The condition is "and" in conditional formatting">>>

Use "Formula is" with
=CELL("format",A1)="C2"
for Condition1
format to Red-

Use "Formula is" with
=CELL("format",A1)=",2"
for Condition2
format to Green-
