Applying Formula To Highlight Cells That Don't Follow Standard Format

Feb 4, 2014

I'm trying to find ways of applying a formula in condition formatting to find entries which don't follow a certain format.

to be clear, this is for a reg plate of a car. There are two styles of formats. The X's represent A-Z and # represents numerical values

1. XX##XXX
2. XX####

find a way of applying two test cases (non-simultaneously) so that cells highlight if they don't follow either of the above conditions?

Applying Formula To Many Cells That Already Contain Values

Jun 8, 2014

I want to apply a simple formula to a number of cells in an existing workbook that already contain values E.g.

My column contains the values
5200
1600
4376
in separate cells

I want to divide each value by 1.2 - without having to change every individual cell - can it be done?

Format (highlight) Cells With 'If' Function With 2007

Sep 14, 2009

I have a workbook that I am working with and I need to formatting the cells so that they will have multiple formulas and I am not sure how to make it work.

Sheet1 Column A is titled 'accounts'. There are 2700 rows under Column A that are being used. Column A is already formatted with a Vlookup formula so I can't add another formula in these cells.

What I need to do is highlight many ranges of these 'accounts' cells depending on their account numbers. I need to input this formula in a separate location on the spreadsheet. For example; If 'accounts' is >=110031100000 AND <=110031100099 then highlight those accounts in 'RED'. and If 'accounts' is >=1200454000000 AND <=120045400099 then highlight those accounts in 'green' and so on...I am not sure how to word the if statement. The formula must reside in column D or greater and not in A.

Am I going about this the wrong way. What I am trying to do is isolate the cells (accounts) that I have referenced on another worksheet so that I can visually notice any accounts that may have been excluded.

Conditional Format - Highlight Cells If They Are Duplicated

Aug 27, 2013

Two things in Conditional Format, any formula to highlight cells if they are duplicated, but the next set of duplicates in another color? i.e.

If that isn't possible just the formula to highlight A To C would be great

So Cells A1 to C1 (red) and cells F! to I1 (Blue)

A1 500
B1 500
C1 500
D1 500
E1 650
F1 750
G1 750
H1 750
I1 750

Conditional Format - Highlight Cells In Column That Have Entered Numbers Rather Than Formulas

May 29, 2013

Col A - budget items (description)
Col B - budget dollars
Col C - actual dollars
Row 10 - summation Cols B and C

When the budget is prepared the actual dollars in Col C are equal to the budget dollars for all items. For instance the formula =b2 is placed in cell C2. As time passes the user records actual dollars in Col C for each item by entering the actual amount directly into the cell. Actual dollars do not become known all at the same time, so that Col C will contain a mixture of formulas and entered numbers.

How can I highlight the cells in Col C that have entered numbers rather than formulas.

0h 00m 00s Time Format To Standard?

Mar 23, 2014

I'm getting a time data on the format "0h 00m 00s" but I can't convert it to a standard "00:00:00" format to properly handle it and I'm not so Excel savvy. I already tried looking for something on google but the formulas for similar issues "0h 0s" or "0d 0h 0h" are not working (I can't find a way to adjust them). For example: I'm have the following data on G3:

0h 37m 52s

and I'm using the following TIME/FIND formula:

=TIME(FIND("h",G3),FIND("m",G3),FIND("s",G3))

but the outcome is "2:06:10" instead of "0:37:52"

Follow Up To Using COUNT, But Now With Interupted Cells

Jan 12, 2009

A1/A2 is Monday, A3/A4 is Tuesday, A5/A6 is Wednesday, A7/A8 is Thursday, A9/A10 is Friday, A11/A12 is Saturday, A13/A14 is Sunday. A15/A16 os Totals. Each of the two cells are merged to hold the heading.
B1 is Plan, B2 is Actual, B3 is Plan, B4 is Actual, B5 is Plan, B6 is actual and so on.

Here is the problem:
The formula suggested was =SUM(A2:G2)/COUNT(A2:G2) which was fine when I only had the one column for "Plan", but now I have added a second column for "Actual" next to each "Plan" but I still need a formula that will add every second cell and average it out allowing for the odd time that one of the cells could contain text indicating a holiday and therefor be one less day with data and require to be divided by 6 instead of 7 for example to get the average.

Overide Conditional Formatting With Standard Format

May 14, 2008

I have a worksheet with conditional formatting to shade (with the color grey) every nth column using the =MOD(COLUMN(),5)=0 function. I need to manually add cells formatted with various other colors to my worksheet. Some of the colored cells overlay the conditionally formatted shaded columns and the shading shows rather than the colors. I want colors to show on top of the conditional shading.

Applying One Formula To 2 Columns

Feb 8, 2014

So right now I have a formula that I'm using in column "C":

=IF(B4="","",IF(AND(B4=22),"IN RANGE","OUT OF RANGE"))

So basically column C tells you if the number in the B column in within the range of 22-30. Now I want to write the formula in column D and make it apply to columns B and C.

So cells in columns B and C will have a number value in it and I will make column D where the formula is. There will be a number in B or C, but never at the same time. I can't figure out how to alter the formula to do this.

Applying Formula Across Columns For Multiple Rows?

Mar 3, 2014

I have a formula that I wrote in B2 and then applied vertically to a large list of rows (100+). I applied it vertically by simply double-clicking the cell with the formula, and it cleanly applied the formula to every row in Column B.

This formula now needs to be applied horizonally across columns, for each respective row. I need a way to do this in one swoop, as it would be very time consuming to manually drag each cell in column B.

I've attached a sample spreadsheet with a simple formula just for the sake of an example.

Applying Numerical Values To Letters In Formula

Feb 28, 2007

I'm putting together an Environment Threat Assessment for work and want to automate as much of it as I can to alleviate the amount of time ppl have to spend putting values in. My main problem is I have three very important columns: Likelihood, Success Rating and Risk Rating. Likelihood and Success Rating values will be selected from the following:

VL - Very Low
L - Low
M - Medium
H - High
VH - Very High
Each of these is given a value: VL = 1, L = 2, M = 3, H = 4, VH = 5.
The Risk Rating is the result of multiplying the Likelihood and Success Rating. So a Likelihood of Medium and a Success Rating of Low will give a Risk Rating of 6. Therefore, the cells on my spreadsheet would look like this:

Likelihood Success Rating Risk Rating
M L 6
The issue is I want a couple of things to occur. Firstly I want keep the values in my Likelihood and Success Rating cells as letters (ie. VL, H, VH etc) rather than numbers, while still generating a number result in the Risk Rating cells. Secondly I'd like to be able to change the colour of the Risk Rating cell to reflect the number it gets assigned. For example Green for < 8, Amber for 9 – 14 and Red for 15 – 25. I've been trying to do this with array formulas and am basically going around in circles with no success.

Excel - Applying Color To Cells?

Sep 19, 2013

I am using two separate workbooks. I am tranferring dates into a new spreadsheet to track projects dates for milestones.

The formula I am using is this: =IF('[BBBBB Dates as of 9-9-13.xlsx]Sheet1'!$CQ$4="", VLOOKUP(W54, '[BBBBB Dates as of 9-9-13.xlsx]Sheet1'!$1:$1048576, 94, FALSE), VLOOKUP(W54, '[BBBBB Dates as of 9-9-13.xlsx]Sheet1'!$1:$1048576, 95, FALSE)).

I would like the cell to turn green if the last part of the formula is true and stay clear if the first part of the formula is true.

I also need to add color beyond just that. I was attempting to apply conditional formatting but am a bit stumped. I want the green to be maintained regardless of other formatting. I would also like to apply to cells that are not color coded green:

Red - if the date is overdue
Yellow - if the date is within 7 days
Otherwise, leave the cell color as clear

Is this possible with conditional formatting? I am not at all proficient in VBA...

Applying Formula To Dynamic Number Of Rows For Different Files?

Feb 20, 2014

I'm new to creating macros and trying to create a macro that will perform a formula that I can use for multiple files. However the files are a varying number of rows.

I want the formula to carry out on the entire column (all rows). However when I record the macro (I tried using relative and also tried using absolute references when filling the formula) the formula always seems to stop filling wherever my original file's rows stopped. I wrote the formula for the first row and double clicked it to fill the remaining rows.

For example if the macro I recorded in File 1 goes to row 15, when I run the macro on File 2 which is 20 rows, the formula stops filling at row 15.
