Can I automate an excel worksheet such that if ,say, "436" is written in a
certain cell it shades that row yellow, or if "437" is in that cell it
shades the row blue. It would then be easy to visually tell in an excel
chart which lines belonged to ,say, specific companies.
I am cross referencing products between two sheets. They come with different product numbers and I have modified them to search for the important last 5 digits from tab 1 (image 1 column D) with the full 11 digits in tab 2 (image 2 column E). The tab for cross referencing is named Distribution vlookup. I have the following formula and cannot get it to work properly. I have used this formula before in another similar report, and have adjusted the tab/file names and fields but I must be missing something since everything comes up as unauthorized, yet I can ctrl+f and find matching items.
VLOOKUP Formula:
=IF(ISNUMBER(VLOOKUP(D4,'Distribution vlookup'!$E$6:$E$133,1,FALSE))=TRUE,"Authorized","NotAuthorized")
Next, I wanted to nest a color coding on whether the item has sold in the last 12 months (image 2, column H). I cannot get that to work, so I tried to run a seperate column to identify selling status and cannot get that ot work either.
Sold in last 12 months formula:
=IF('Distribution vlookup'!H7>0,"Sold in last 12 mos","n/a")
In Excel 2003, when choosing colors for cell patterns, it only gives me the option of 40 colors. How do I get it to offer me the "More colors..." that you see when coloring shapes that brings up the hexagonal color pallette?

Is there a way to shade alternating rows in a range and have it always be alternating no matter if a row is added in the middle of the range. If I do it manually now and add a row it messes up the shading and fixing it manually is very time consuming.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a file that contains multiple rows of data. I built a macro that will then hide rows with a $0 balance. When the macro is completed, my spreadsheet is only showing the lines with a $ amount. (The $0 rows are hidden)
What I'd like to do is then format the unhidden rows so that each alternate row is color coded. This will separate the rows visually so I can more easily follow the rows across to view $'s per line.
I've attached a sample spreadsheet (it does contain the macro to hide the $0 rows). How can I then format the remaining rows with alternate shading?
I'm trying to use the following formula in conditional formatting in cell A2 when the range A2:AW64 is selected (this conditional
formatting will be copied to all cells in the selected range):
Formula is: =isodd($A2)
The error I keep getting is this:
"You may not use references to other worksheets or other workbooks for Conditional Formatting criteria."
I'm trying to use this conditional formatting because column A is our "Order" column. "Order" can be from 1 to 13 and this column
is sorted ascending. There can be multiple rows in each Order number. So I want to shade all 1's, 3's, 5's, etc... so that each
Order group has alternating shading.
I also want to use conditional formatting, not VBA, to get this to work. In the future, rows might be added to an Order number or two and I want the shading to automatically adjust.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI wrote a macro to color the cell values in the rows based on their average value. For eg if the cell value is less than 0.2 Avg, they should be red color,if value is between 0.2 and 0.5 it should be yellow. This part is working fine
Now based on the color of the rows cells , need to write a macro for the header one. Logic is Coloum header should be in red colour, if in one or more number of rows cells are red. same with yellow ones. Could you please help me out in solving this with logic.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have one worksheet that contains a large table. I'm using VLOOKUP to spread each row of the table to separate worksheets.
When VLOOKUP refers to an empty cell, is there a way to set that row to be hidden?
Also, if VLOOKUP returns data to a cell, is there a way for Excel to automatically set the row height to display all of the linked data in that cell?

I am a bit of a novice, so hope i explain what the problem is correctly. I have 3 teams Red, Blue and Green, with 5 members in an team.I need to depict each members name with the correct team colour in a cell and there name. However i need it to change the cell colour when i select the members name from a drop down list. The drop down list is not a problem its getting the cell to colourize to.

I have a spreadsheet that shows which month a vendor pays. I need each of these months to have a different color, for ease of reading. I have tried the CF, but I can only get three colors out of it.
I got this to work, but not how I want it. I would like to be able to auto color the cell when I leave that cell. The way it is now I have to go back and click the cell again. I have tried putting this code in 'SelectionChange' section of sheet1. I have put it everywhere I could think of, but it still does the same thing, I have to click back into the cell to give it color. Is there any way to have it so that when I push enter, or tab out of the cell it will give color to the cell I just left.

When I type numbers in the cells from D4 to D14, E4 to E14 and so on, the particular cell should turn into "Green". All the the cells will remain "yellow" and blank until numbers are entered based on the daily cleaning of machines. When particular machine no is entered in to a cell cell, that cell should turn green(this shows that "service is done for that machine")
View 2 Replies View RelatedNot sure if this is possible or if I would need to run a VB macro. image multiple columns with text headers.
'A'=Project Number 'B'= Date 'C'=Description etc etc etc 'S'=Cancelled (i actually use up to 'Z' on the columns for various other data)
I have added a Conditional Format on the cells in column 'S' that if the cell data = Y then colour the cell RED. This at first glance will show that the project has been cancelled. What I would like it to do is to colour the complete row (shaded grey for example) this would then show up more easily with the amount of data that is on my sheet.
I am trying to find a way to write a Macro that will auto color multiple cells based on what data is displayed in one cell. The cell I want to reference is a vlookup cell.
Basically this is a part label. And depending what part is selected from the list my vlookup will display its position on a vehicle(i.e.. FR, FL, RR, RL, Etc..). So if vlookup comes back with FR I want the various cells on the label to be orange, etc..
ALSO: if there is a way to embed it so it does this automatically (rather than run the macro each time).

I have a spreadsheet I use to keep my bank balance in...
I have this forum at the VERY top of it to show my bank balance:
=G3+SUMIF(H4:H2999,"X",E4:E2999)-SUMIF(H4:H2999,"X",F4:F2999)
Once an item clears, I put an X in column H, and then it updates the balance at the top to make it so I can reconcile easily.
What I want to do is have every line without an X in column H to show up a shaded color... any easy way to do this?
I'm using the below code to shade rows, but right now it's only coloring the first cell in B12. I'd like to shade the row from B to the last used column
[Code] .....
When I run a particular module of code that unhides several rows of a worksheet, revealing cells that are automatically populated and editable by the user, there are a few cells that are lightly highlighted in blue. This isn't to be misunderstood as background ... background shading goes righ to the 4 lines of the cell grid. This shading is a few pixels off the gridlines. Similarly, there are highlighted row numbers and column letters. The cells that are highlighted are a few of the cells that are locked for editting and are a result of a copied over formula. The highlighting goes away when you click on that cell.
One could almost say something is identifying the locked cells of the worksheet.
.Code:
Sub populate_existing()
Dim wshmain As Worksheet
Dim wshcore As Worksheet
Dim CRID As Long
Dim vlrange As Range
Set wshmain = Worksheets("Main")
Set wshcore = Worksheets("CONTROL_1")
CRID = wshmain.Range("B14")
Set vlrange = wshcore.Range("A:DZ")
[code]....
The cells highlighted are: G26, N26, X25, AE25, AE27, AL26, K42, R42, Y42, AF42, G47, N47, N49, G54, and N53.
I wasn't able to take a snapshot of the shading, it didn't show up in the Snippit tool image.
I wish to fill cells with black colour for service days staff are not selectable.
The column Entitlement is a formula working on the year start date compares to to the employee start date to work out the days entitled.

I am trying to write vba code that will highlight the row in the range if a field is over a certain percent. The column number won't change but the number of rows will. I'd also like the code to automatically work on all tabs of the workbook when a button is clicked.
Data Info:
Currently there are 4 tabs, but can have more/less
Columns used are A:O
Data for shading starts at A3 and should go to however many rows have data and ignore blank rows
Formula should be if data in column E is over 10.00% then the data in that row A:O should be shaded in the color off yellow & have black thin orders
If the data in column E is not over 10.00% then the data in that row should not be shaded but still have thin black borders.
The logic is that I want the cells to be highlighted and have a border drawn for them as shown in the attached sheets (I have used record macro which will do this for rows 39 and 40 when the click button is clicked). The highlighting should start at the row number specified, stop once a merged cell is reached, skip the merged cell, continue highlighting, stop once a merged cell is reached, skip the merged cell, continue highlighting and so on and on until the last row (which is user specified) is reached. The first row after the merge cells should be highlighted in grey and yellow.
