Default chart datapoint color

Hi all.

I am using conditional formatting to show if a value in a cell is good or
bad (green or red).
Is there a way to do the same thing when I chart these values? Good
datapoints = green colums, bad ones red (based on the color of the cell
where the datapoint comes from)?

Regards,

Wolfgang.

You can't format the chart based on the colours in the source data, but
Jon Peltier has some instructions for creating conditional charts:
