Automatically Color Fill Rows Based On Changing Column Information
I would like to automatically color fill a series of rows based on like information from a single column. When the information in the column changes then the rows would either stop filling (this would be best) or fill with a different color until the information changes again.
Summary: series of alternating rows would either be filled or unfilled based on changes from the column information.
Hope this isn't too confusing. Below is an example except I would want the cells filled, not the text or numbers to change. The highlight is changing based on the changing of the numbers.
ABCD 12345
ABD 12345
ABCD 12349
ABDF 12349
ABCD 12358
ABF 12358

Macro: Changing Color Of Coloumn Header Based On Rows Color
I 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.

Delete Rows Based On Fill Color
i found a link to my problem in the subject title below, http://www.ozgrid.com/forum/showthre...t=45580&page=2 The guy at the end of the post says he got it working in the end, but no one seems to have posted the final solution - could someone tell me if the solution is actually in the thread, and if so where! My problem is outlined by this guy - basically i want to be able to delete rows in a range that have no fill color, and so keep the ones that are colored.

Automatically Color Rows Based On Cell Value
I currently use spreadsheets to report on backup processes. I am trying to speed up this process and one thing that woudl help me is a function that will automatically fill the row with a colour depending on the choice in the dropdown box, so if you choose 'successful' from the dropdown list the row colour would fill to green and if you select 'failed', the row would change to red and a choice of 'completed/errors' would result in orange. This process is currently done manually and often results in errors like a succesful result with a red filling. Is there anyway to automate this process? i was trying to whip up a macro, but have been unsuccessful so far.

Automatically Fill Information Across Worksheets
I have created a spreadsheet that I must fill out daily. this worksheet has averages that must be automtically shared with a "master" worksheet. for example information from sheet2!b23 information from sheet3!b23 information from sheet4!b23 etc... must automatically be transfered to sheet1!c6 sheet1!c7 sheet1!c8 etc... in that order at this time I am typing in =sheet2!b23 on sheet1 everytime, I want to avoid this. If you are asking yourself why? I dont blame you but it needs be this way so I can average each days spreadsheet.

Changing Cell Color Based On Changing Values
This may have been answered on here but can not seem to find it. My situation is I have values in A1,A2 & A3 that are like counter reading so the value is always changing. What I am looking to do is change the cell color if one of the values is over 500 from the other two values. Say A1 is 3000, A2 is 3250 and A3 is 3500. I would like the cell for A3 to change color.

Automatically Hide Rows Based On A Value In Column Q
After the user selects something using the validation list in cell F38, the macro should check in column Q in the rows 44 till 425 for "hide". For each row in which it finds "hide" the entire row should be hidden. I have the code below but it does't work yet. It calculates for ages and afterwards only the first 2 rows of the 381 are hidden (probably because the third row is not "hide"). Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim MyRange As Range Dim ThisCell As Range Target = Range("F38") Set MyRange = Range("Q44:Q" & Range("Q425").End(xlUp).Row) For Each ThisCell In MyRange If ThisCell.Value = "hide" Then ThisCell.EntireRow.Hidden = True End If Next ThisCell End Sub

Automatically Copy Rows Based On Criteria In Column
I'm not sure that I'll be able to explain this clearly, so I've attached an example. There are 3 columns - Issue, Action Group and Status. Many Issues belong to the same Action Group and others do not belong to any Action Group. The is also a Status summary section that has the total Issues and Actions associated with each status. For example the Status called Resolved could have 10 issues and 5 Actions (including blanks). The problem is that I can't figure out a way to get the total for the Actions.

Changing Color Of Rows
I have a spreadsheet where you can choose one of two options per row. The listbox says either CASH or CHECK. If the user selects CASH, I would like the row to stay the same color. If the user selects CHECK I would like the row to be highlighted or change color. Upon a glance, anyone who knew the system could then tell how many people paid by CHECK, and who they were.

Change Font Color In A Range Based On One Cells Information
I have attached an example file.. Basically I want the text in a range to change to red if one cell="Description". Also, I want a cell's text to turn blue if it's corresponding data in the row says "Click on Title to Follow Link" The example file explains it a lot better.. Thanks for the help.. Sorry if this may seem like a duplicate post but I was not able to get any of the examples I searched for to work that others have posted.. Also, maybe conditional formatting would be an option here but I could not get it to work as it will only meet the first condition that comes across thats true...

Automatically Fill In Column When Certain Cell In Column Changed
I am trying to have some automation to my WS and what I want to do, is if a certain column (column 104) is changed, it will fill out that column with the data entered as long as the account is the same (column 5). Here is the code I tried, but realized very quickly, it puts me into a loop. This is being called by a change worksheet fuction If Target.Column = 104 Then If IsEmpty(Target) Then Else testacct = Cells(Target.Row, 5) temptest = testacct s_TempSwitch = Target.Value Testoffset = 0 Do While temptest = testacct temptest = Cells(Target.Row + Testoffset, 5) Cells(Target.Row + Testoffset, 104).Value = s_TempSwitch Testoffset = Testoffset + 1 Loop End If End If

Color Changing Column Chart
I am trying to create a chart that will show each month of the year's workload based on orders due for each month. I have all of the information needed on a spreadsheet to chart this into a simple chart showing the load, however, I want a little extra on the charting to show me additional details. I would like for my chart to also display the available man hours for each month against the workload. I would like for the available man hours to be displayed by color changes in each month bar column of the graph. So if I had 1000 hours of work in the month of April and only 960 man hours available in April it would have shown me throughout the month as the chart grew that I was "Green" for all hours below 860. The as the chart grew past 860 that portionof the chart changed to "Orange" telling me that the hours were soon to be full. Once it reached 960 that part of the chart would turn "Red" as an indication that we have more workload than we can complete for that month. This would be useful for me as an overtime tool, as well as for review for additional man hours or a decrease in man hours.

We want to be able to change the names of the tabs by changing their respective cell on the summary tab. So “sheet1” corresponds to B5, “sheet2” to B6, “sheet3” to B7, etc.. So if I change the name in B5 to say “APPLE” I want the tab for sheet1 to change to APPLE. When I change B10 from “sheet6” to “Lemon” I want sheet6 to be titled “Lemon”.

Changing Font Color Based On Change From Previous Value

If the most recent order is the exact same size as the previous order, I want the order to be colored black.

Color Column Charts Based On Font Color Data Cells
I have attached the relevant spreadsheet for which I need to alter the color of the columns based on Site number ( Sheet 1). % Mortality will be represented in the Y-Axis, and the Site numbers would be on the X-Axis. All columns (% Mortality) except one will be of the same color, and the one of a different color will indicate a specific site. As an example, site 86 is colored differently. The way I require the chart to look is shown on Sheet 1. After reading through some great posts on Ozgrid, I managed to do this using conditional formatting (Sheet 2), but that sort of falls short because I am required to add a data table to the chart, and the parameter that is indicated by the column bars happens to appear twice in the data table. I was wondering if this can be automated maybe using VBA, but with the possibility of simply matching the color of columns with the font color of respective entry in the data series.

I have a detailed note inside biweekly.xls, it explains everything in context. Two excel sheets, one is updated manually (Vikki's Yearly Averages.xls), while the other is for reporting (biweekly.xls) The coding will all be in biweekly.xls. First, it needs to take a date to the right of a name from biweekly.xls and use the month and year from that date for the search. Then it needs to look in VYK.xls under the name and copy every entry starting in the year specified and month specified and ending at the current date.

Comments On Column G Based On Information On Column A
Am trying to put comments on column G based on information on column A. Column A contains a grade eg CDEF picked up from another sheet using vlookup. This grade is suppossed to be the same, but I have cases where I add a different grade say GHIJ to fill up my 99 required grades.Column G is for comments such as "Transfered" (which at the moment am entering manually)How can I use a formular so that each time I transfer from another grade other that the one intended it returns a comment "tranfered" on column G? Is it also possible to indicate the cell from which vlookup picked that grade on the same comment column G.

Print Worksheets Based On Information In Column
I have a workbook with many sheets, all of which derive information from the first sheet. On the first sheet, I enter values from say J1:J29. Each of these values is fed into one of the subsequent worksheets. I would like to have some code that would look at my range, determine which cells are used and print the corresponding worksheets. Write now I have a bunch of If statements that say If Sheets("Worksheet").Range("j8") > 0 Then Sheets("698-ALY W1222").PrintOut End If the problem is that it takes to long as each statement is evaluated and the print command sent. The values in column J have names in column I and while the names do not exactly match the worksheets, a person could look at the name and match the correct sheet. For instance the name in column I that corresponds to the worksheet name 698-ALY W1222 is 698/ALY. Thanks Bryce

Conditionally Format Each Group Of Rows And Each Column And Color The Cell In Each Column
I've a worksheet that is 3750 rows of cells from A to DT and contains only numbers with the exception of a header row. The rows are in groups, primarily 4 rows, although there are exceptions - these rows are separated by blank rows. Small example as follows. 0:001:002:003:004:005:006:007:008:009:000000-296567-6-1-400000286567-300-230000715557-16-11-40-18141755226-348405-362203081417192125-893581061800-2443-11124-289326-81318-1105027854331331211318-10216-161235526785691450451115951-17-1882505656683093102671056-191-33-2710000554740971-61-78-34224107-169-128-17090179-85220-55-63-1-162-140-242-235328266319106113-214-64-148205-4108120-142076-167-60-68-6418081102-800000000000-3099695807185-80356138-123194186210677727125-23233092-2942944748055564476-422051-224-34461486649597117-84209-22-251-94 I have been trying to conditionally format each group of rows and each column and color the cell in each column of four (or less) numbers in each group that represents the maximum number. It was easy enough to come up with the conditional formatting BUT it will take forever to do this manually. I've been told to use a macro but I know nothing of programming. Has anyone seen or heard of a macro that might already be written to perform this onerous task.

Copy Information Between Worksheets Based On Specific Column Entry
My workbook contains several worksheets each recording the results of equipment tests - one sheet for each piece of equipment. Rather than open each worksheet to check the date of the last test, other 'overview' worksheets pick up and display the last test date from each equipment record using the formula =MAX('sheetref'!A15:A500). Is there a better formula to do this? Some items of equipment are tested at more than one frequency, ie Monthly, Yearly, etc. Therefore, the entry on row 15 of an equipment record may be column A 28/10/08 column D 'M' and row 16 column A 29/10/08 column D 'Y'. The above formula will only display the last test date, irrespective of frequency. There is a seperate overview sheet for each test frequency therefore, I need to modify the formula so that the date it copies from the equipment record worksheet to the overview worksheet is the date of the last test for the specified frequency.

I know I can nest IF functions in order to achieve this, but could be a bit messy. I'm sure there must be a simpler formula within Excel ... just don't know what it's called!
