Set A Conditional Formatting Rule That Makes A Cell Red?
Jan 9, 2014
I want to set a conditional formatting rule that makes a cell red or green depending on if the value in the cell is larger or smaller than the value in another cell +2% or -3%. If neither of these conditions are met no formatting should be applied..
a) In the cell (R104) where the condition is set I have the following formula:
=if(BP104=0;"";BQ104/BP104) (the values in BP104 and BQ104 is retrieved from a database)
b) The conditions I've set in R104 are the following
1) =isblank($R$104) (condition: "nothing")
2) =$R$104<$R$106-0,02 (condition: "red")
3) =$R$104>$R$106+0,03 (condition: "green")
c) In cell R106 the value there is a value of 90%
The conditions seem to work fine when the value in R104 is higher or lower than the conditions set in 2 and 3 above but when the value is blank in R104 the cell goes green, which it shouldn't.

how to adapt the solution so it would work in multiple cells. Since I was told to start a new thread, here it is. I want to format a cell based on its contents, If it has one of three entries, it should be greyed. I then want to use the conditional format across the whole page, but the solution given in the other thread refers to a single cell, how can I do this without that reference?

Allows me to check like 10 different text values and return false for all of those in the conditional formatting rule. When those are not present, the conditional format is true thus applying the format.
I tried
=NOT(FIND("text1",$A$1,1))
It did not work because I believe this statement doesnt give the rule its TRUE value its looking for.
I am having trouble with this, to clarify I need the below...
Cell has conditional formatting checking for text1 text2 text3...text 10ish and if they are present nothing will happen and if they arent present then format the cell.
EDIT: to clarify, the code should look for either text1 or text2 or text3 so on...

I have a table where Sales are in Column B and a % calculation is in Column E. I want to highlight the cells in green that are over 40% and that also meet the criteria where the sale in that row is above $100.
In conditional formatting I tried to use =and(b4>100,e4>40%) but it did not do anything. I am also okay with using a nested if statement.

I want to change the colour of rows depending on the letter that is in a column. I want it to do it over all the sheets of the document. In the G column there will be letters like 'W' and 'L' that signify something and I want to make it clear by changing the row colour fill. I've tried a few formulas I found by googling but they didn't work. I should point out that the letters are connected, so if I put a 'W' on the second sheet it appears on the first sheet as well.

I have read through numerous posts, but cannot get one thing to work. I am using Excel 2003, and am trying to get a calendar to pop up, to select a date, and then return that date to Cell B2.
I was successful at making the calendar pop up by the following methods:
1. Added a button to the toolbar, and assigned the Calendar Macro to it.
2. Using VB, added a sub-menu item to the right-click (context) menu, using the code below.
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Application.OnKey "+^{C}", "Module1.Macro2"
End Sub
However, my goal is to make the calendar appear when I click on cell B2.
I tried using the following code, but when I click on B2 nothing happens.
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$B$2" Then UserForm1.Show
End Sub
I also tried:
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Excel.Range, Cancel As Boolean)
With Worksheets(ActiveCell.Worksheet.Name)
If ActiveCell.Column = 2 Then
If ActiveCell.Row = 1 Then
UserForm1.Show
End If
End If
End With
End Sub

I would like to do a routine in VBA on excel 2007 that makes the following:
1- When the mouse is over a cell it pops-up a window that shows a picture;
2- When the pointer is removed from the cell the window that contains the picture closes;
It is very important that the picture that is shown be adressed by a relative path from the folder in which is the excel file.
The pictures can change; this is the reason that the picture should be addressed by a path.

I have searched and have not been able to find an answer to this question so it might be a little unique possibly. I have an ActiveX combo box that I am trying to do something with. The text that I want to appear in the combo box is already there and I did this by creating a list and referencing it to the combo box. So the combo box has the following four items in its drop down:
Boat
Car
Plane
Walk
Now the part I cannot figure out is how to make a selected value appear in another cell based on what was selected in the combo box. For example, if boat is selected in the combo box, then I want the value 25 to appear in a cell. If Plane is selected in the combo box, I want the value of 100 to appear in a cell. For walk 5, and for car 22. I know this can easily be done with data validation and a validation drop down list but I do not want to use that but need to have a combo box do it instead. I just don't know if it cannot be done as a list or not and have experimented with INDEX but not having any luck there. I do not want to use any macros for this either. Basically I am wondering how I can make my combo box work just like data validation drop down menu bar with formatted values outputted into a cell.

Depending on the text entered into one cell, I'd like another cell to state n/a. For example, if cell a2 shows the text of cash, then cell b2 would show n/a.

I have two columns. In column B is the date of "last check". I column A is the date of "next check". I would like to have cell A2 in yellow color 334 days after the date entered in cell A3 and than in red color 365 days after the date entered in cell A3. Same thing for cell B2 related to date entered in cell B3. Yellow color in cells announces that check will expire within 30 days and red color that check has been expired.

This seems way too simple to do yet I can't get it right. It will highlight some that are different and not highlight others that are different. I need to compare column A to O and highlight differences, B to P and highlight difference, and so on.

I want to use conditional formatting on a column ('A') to highlight cells that do not have a match with any cells in a specific range.
So I've made a range called 'AcceptedData', which contains a couple of cells with text.
Also included a blank cell in the range, since I do not want blank cells to be highlighted.
Then I used this conditional format forumla on column A.
=COUNTIF(AcceptedData;A1)=0
But it doesn't seem to work. The blank cells get highlighted.

I have a worksheet with conditional formatting applied. My formula works to change the cell color, font color, and strike-through the font if a "yes" answer is indicated. It all works well EXCEPT that the font color and strike-through ONLY apply to the top line on my cell.
Each cell has a title line, and a few paragraphs in it, with separations between the title line and the paragraphs. I kind of like having the title line a different font, but when it's time to strikethrough I want ALL of the text struck through.

I want to create a conditional formatting based on a cell in a row. If the value of that cell is greater than or equal to $20 the entire row would be highlighted with a color.
the main thing is that the cells in the rows have if formulas that supple the data for the cells. The cells will be blank if nothing is to be displayed but they will still contain the formula.
