I'm not sure but I think it's not possible via formula, except with a VBA coded custom function.
However, conditional formatting will work for you. It's in the Format menu.

Thanks but that only changes the cell you are working on. What i need is if i put either yes or no into cell B4 i want cell E4 to change to either red or green. If i cant do it with an if formula do you have a macro i could use.
Thanks

Select E4, then use a formula
