I would like to add a date to one cell (say A6) and have this do two things:
#1) this would add "Closed" to a given cell such a A5.
#2) and this would add a color to a group of cells like A1 through A8.
I have values in a number of cells. Next to them, if there was a value, regardless of what the value is, except blank or zero, i would like the cell to turn blue and if possible have a 1 in the cell.
I've used the conditional formatting, however, among the options, 'less than' is the closest to to getting the color right. The issue is that if the cell has nothing in it, it still colors the corresponding cell blue; because it is not less than the already blank cell. If it is blank, I don't want it to color the cell.
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.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI did a search on this site and found some code I was looking for (see link:
http://www.excelforum.com/excel-prog...e-in-cell.html - Leith Ross's response code).
The code works perfectly, however, if I save the workbook with a different spreadsheet on top than the spreadsheet referred to in this code, I get an error message: Method 'Range' of object '_Worksheet' failed.
I should state that I did change "Private Sub Workbook_Open()" to "Private Sub Auto_Open()".
I assume I need to modify the code but am unsure as to how.
I would like to know how to use a VBA code to insert today's date into a specific cell (B9) when any cell in column B (B2:B8) has changed.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to write a macro similar to the one found here: here:http://www.techonthenet.com/excel/macros/checkbox.php.
Rather then use a textbox, I would like the cell to display the date when text is inserted in the cell to the left.
ie. I insert text (the letter 'a') in cell E11, and the date appears in cell F11.
I would also like the macro to do this for a range of cells ie. for E11 to F21, then from G11 to H21, then from I11 to J21, all the way to column IV.
I am looking to insert a date in a Cell when another Cell's number has been changed.
I was using If statement as: If(isnumber(f4),TODAY())
but I don't think it is working properly
the cells columns would be, e.g. "Consumables stock" and "date updated".
So if someone changes a number is the "consumables stock" column, date updated column auto-updates with current date. How would I go by in doing this?
I have an excel file that we add data too for assignments and I want the date to auto popuate if the status is changed to Mitigated, Escalated, or offline. I wrote the below function which works but when i open it the next date the current date is written to those cells. creating a function that writes the date when the status is change and then leave the date alone unless the status is changed again.

I have attached an example of what i have and below is the function

Summary of performance of various products against target is as follows,
Product vs Target

I need the final result automated as follows,
If 2 green of the 4 products, then final result Gree
If 2 Amber of the 4 products, then final result amber
If 2 Red of the 4 products, final result Red
Is there a way to automate this?
I have a user form that when a command button is clicked it enters the data from the from into coloums a,b,c,etc. I have code to do this but I want to add code to add a static date in coloum B based on if coloum A had data entered from the form.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have about 40 rows of A - Z columns. I want to color a row if a certain cell within that row (A-Z) contains a date (versus being blank). This is separate for each row. So if U2 contains a date, Row 2 (A-Z) is color such and such. I don't want to use conditional format, as this spreadsheet is generated by a web interface, is run frequently and requires a macro formatting each time.

I am trying to make a reference to tell me when my rigging gear is due for inspection. I want the cell to change colors when a date is in range. For example i would like a red cell when the item is due or past due for inspection. A yellow cell for when the item is 90 days out from the due date. i have used conditional formating and used =E$-30<=TODAY() and changed cell to red. but when i add another format, for E$-90<=TODAY() for yellow, it will not work.
Once this is solved, i will need to make the entire row change color.
what I want can be done in the 'Conditional Formatting' but I can't seem to figure it out.
I have a spreadsheet with specific dates down the left colum and I need that row to highlight when the date comes, and then return back to normal when the next date comes around and gets highlighted.
so for example, A1 = 1/1/2008 I need that row highlighted when 1/1/2008 comes around, then the next date would be A2 = 1/15/2008 and so on..
Upon opening a spreadsheet, I would like a macro to highlight the cell which contains todays date. This will be selected from a range of dates which are already populated in column B. Is it possible to have a macro which can select the cell in column B which contains today's date? If possible, please could you include the code for doing this upon opening the spreadsheet. I'm not too confident about that either!

The I insert the defined function LSDate() into the cell i want the last saved date to appear in, but what happens after is that whenever i save the sheet this date doesnt update and when i click enter on the same cell it shows the error message #NAME?.

I would like the current date inserted automatically into a blank cell when I click on it. It will always be in the same column, but a different date on each row for that particular entry. I used to use datepicker.xla--loved it, worked great. But now I get an erroe message when I installed and tried to run it on a new pc. Does excel come with a drop-down calendar you can pick a date?
View 9 Replies View RelatedKind of like what they do in airline booking web sites, where you have the option "show calendar" and you select the date from there, to avoid any possible typing mistakes. When you select the cell, a calendar or a date drop-down list should pop-up.

I need to insert a date modified column to an Excel 2007 workbook I am currently using. The columns range is from A to L, with about a hundred data points. However, I would like to have the date modified cell update only when there are changes to rows F through L, starting with row 3.
I need the code to still function if I add rows, and it would be great if it would also still run if I added columns, but that part is not necessary. I've gotten close by defining a cell name as myCol and using this code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Target.Row < 3 Then Exit Sub

How to Change The Tab Color Based On A Cell Date ( Thursday & Friday ) Green Color, Rest of the week blue.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhat I want is to make date formatted cells change color based on a parameter related to the date. For example, turn to red 7 days before the date in the field, and back to green when the date has passed, or when it is changed (updated).
It's basicaly a payment reminder, so if this is not exactly possible, are there any other ways to do it? Maybe the cell turns red on a predetermined date each month, and back to green on another date?
In an excell worksheet I need to change the color of a cell within a column based on the date entered. For example, if the date in the cell is 60 days from today's date then the cell should be green, if the date in the cell is 90 days from today's then the cell should be blue, if the date in the cell is 120 days from today's date then the cell should be yello.

I have two problems sort of rolled into one. I have a spreadsheet with a list of skills to perform in cells a2:z2. Under those I put in dates where those skills are performed so a3:a100 , b3:b100 and so on. At the moment I have the these dates populating another sheet with the list of skills going a2:a200 and the dates in b2:b200.
Annoyingly I have been asked set it up so it inputs the other way so my problems are: The skills in the second sheet are in a different order than in the first sheet so its not a straight correlation between the two so I would need to search for the title and match it to the second sheet. Then the second problem is as the will be numerous entries I need to find the next available space in the first sheet. So can you add data at the bottom of a list??
is there anyway I can do a conditional formatting of something like that to color a cell if the date in the cell is a friday?

21-mar
21-mar
