In this video, I demonstrate how to use Copilot in Microsoft Excel to seamlessly apply conditional formatting to data involving text, dates, and numbers. I first ensure the worksheet meets the prerequisites for using Copilot by saving it to OneDrive or SharePoint, enabling Autosave, and structuring the data as a table.

Through practical examples, I showcase Copilot's capability to intuitively handle requests such as highlighting certain states in a specific color, marking purchases above a threshold, and changing the font color for recent invoice dates.

Copilot is a great addition to all Microsoft 365 products, but in Excel it's amazing at understanding prompts and taking action.
