=If (forumla) = Colour Fill Cell

Oct 5, 2009

I have two dates lets call them cells A1 and A2. I then have another cell that caluclates the difference in these dates into a simple number (ie not another date) - A3. I need one of two things.

Ideally I want the whole cell (A3) to appear as a Green (fill) cell if the value is below 5, appear Orange if beween 6 and 9 and appear as red if its 10 or over.

I do not know if you can colour a cell that has a formula in already. So what follows is my current 'work around', which, if you can not colour the A3 cell, then I would need this cell coloured (A4). =IF(D12>7,"Urgent Attention",IF(D12<5,"New",""))

Changing Fill Colour Of 2 Other Cells Based On Another Cell Outcome

May 29, 2014

I need to fill 2 other cells with varying colours dependant on what is chosen within another cell.

I have a drop-down list in cell A2 to select either ON SITE, ACTIVE or CANCEL.

What I need then basically is...
if A2 equals 'ON SITE' then fill other two cells (A3 and B1) GREEN
if A2 equals 'ACTIVE' then fill other two cells (A3 and B1) YELLOW
if A2 equals 'CANCEL' then fill other two cells (A3 and B1) RED

Changing Fill Colour Of Cells Based On Other Cell Inputs

Jun 20, 2014

I have a calendar set up with dates going along P6:CU6. Column C9:C27 has various status' for the job such as "Complete" or "In Progress" etc. Next to that in rows D and E I have start and end dates for the job. What I am trying to do is change the fill colour of the empty cells that are in line with each job, so that between the correct dates they are the corresponding colour to the status. So a complete job on row 9 that started on 26/05/14 and finished on 28/05/14 would have three green cells along Q9, R9, and S9.

I have tried an IF/AND/OR statement which looks like this:

=IF(AND(Q6>=D9,Q6<=E9),OR(IF(C9="Planned","P",""),IF(C9="In Progress","IP",""),IF(C9="Late","L",""),IF(C9="Complete","C","")),"")

I am getting a #VALUE! data type error, I have tried reformatting the cells to various date formats but no luck so far. This could be because my dates are set up as =P6+1 etc. but I am not sure. The error only occurs when the cell falls within the dates, otherwise it remains blank.

I intend to hide the value in the cell and use conditional formatting to change the cell colour based on the hidden input.

Once this is working I also need to take weekends into account, column G has any 2 value combination of Y and N to say whether the employee is working Saturday, Sunday or both. Row 7 has a "1" value underneath every Saturday and a "2" underneath every Sunday. I can imagine how this would work but combining it with the above formula could be complicated.

Changing Cell Fill Colour Based On Another Cell Value

Oct 2, 2008

I have a table:......

I want to colour in the relevant cells for each ref depending on the numbers in the stage column. So for the first line, the cells in columns 1,2,4&6 need to be shaded in. For the second line, the cells in columns 1,2,3,4,&5 need to be shaded in. I already have a lot of conditional formatting set on the sheet so need to do this with a macro.

I have tried to write something but am having issues with it finding the 1 and shading in the correct column but then jumping out of the loop and on to the next cell.

How To Identify / Reproduce Fill Colour

Oct 5, 2013

If there is a colour in a cell that I want to use in another cell how can I find what the colour is, and/or copy it to the new location?

Sometimes a colour other than those available as a "standard" colour is used and it is almost impossible to match it by trial and error.

I realise that the Format Painter can be used but I often just want the colour only and not have the rest of my format altered.

Auto Format Fill Colour Background On Certain Cells

Apr 2, 2007

I have been working on a spreadsheet but I use autoformat for.

For example if the date in the cell matches today's date then it turns the text read and makes it bold.

I was wondering if there was a way to format several cells in a row if a certain criteria was met.

for example

A B C
1 Item Cost Quantity
2 Car £11,520 2
3 Bike £7,500 1
4 Tyres £50 4

Now for example if I set a condition whereas the quatity is greater than 3 then it would highlight the whole row.

So in the example above I would like to to highlight row 4 and Fill colour cells A4,B4 & C4 with a yellow background and Red Text and make the texted bold.

Multiple IF And SEARCH Forumla

Aug 19, 2009

I am trying to do is use a combination of IF and SEARCH forumlas to return a result based on a choice of constants available to the user. Issue 1: IF Function to determine which worksheet to SEARCH What I would like to add to this is if one of the 3rd criteria (Amount) is under a certain number then the results are derived from the 'Staff' worksheet'. (This is stage I have gotten to so far). However, if the criteria is above a certain number then the results are derived from the 'Executive' worksheet. This is the part I'm so far unable to do.

Issue 2: SEARCH function returning the column per the user's selection on 'Matrix' page In addition, criteria 2 (Type) can be selected which corresponds to a column in the Staff and Executive worksheets. So far I have been unable to get the correct search results to post in the Matrix page. What I mean by this is that currently it is set to Type1 only. I have tried using an IF function in cell G8 and include this in the formula, however, the forumla returns the contents of G8 in the cell instead.

Issue 3: SEARCH results are post in an accending order. At this stage I have only been able to work how how to do this by using an AUto Filter on the Staff and Executive pages and sorting accending that way. Going forward as updates are made to the staff and executive pages I would prefer that this manual task was not required. Instead, the formula used returns the search in accending order.

Exchange A Number For A Letter Forumla

Aug 8, 2009

I have a sheet which calculates payment amounts.

Column titles:
Hours | Rate of Pay | Total

In the hours column usually the entries consist of numbers and everything works fine. However when an employee is on holiday they are still paid.

What I want to do is be able to enter the letter "H" for one of the entries in the hours column. The sheet to translate this as 2 hours.

H=2 x rate of pay = total

I cannot for the life of me get the correct formula to in order to achieve this. I don't particularly want to use a macro for this and others have suggested the "COUNTIF" function.
