You can enter three conditions that query the contents of cell values or formulas. The conditions are evaluated from 1 to 3. If the condition 1 matches the condition, the defined style will be used. Otherwise, condition 2 is evaluated, and its defined style used. If this style does not match, condition 3 is evaluated.</paragraph>
