I have the following Case statement that changes all the cells to the correct color, but does not change the Font color as specified in the Case. All the text is White (fcolor = 2) instead of just the 3 types of cells specified.

Conditional format for changing font colors using VBA
Its Working.
Trying to format cells b9 through b 24 and cells c9 through c24 to change from white to a light grey color by clicking the mouse button once. so one click white, another click grey. The color grey I need is white, background 1, darker 25% in the autofill field in excel. I have search other forums they all lead to changing the code, I did this already. just copy pasted a code I found but all cells were selected to change a bright green.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to have change if the date on it is passed "now()". I am already using the 3 conditional formatting fields and need this one and another one. Here are 2 problems I seem to be having.
First - the code below only works if I change the date on the cell. I want code to either work with Worksheet Active or any other way so the user does not have to redo the dates everyday.
Second - a record might have conditional formatting already. Is it possible for the target cell in this code can show this color while the rest of the row shows the color of the conditional formatting?
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim icolor As Integer
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("G1:G2000")) Is Nothing Then
Select Case Target
Case Is <= Now()
icolor = 39
End Select
Target.Interior.ColorIndex = icolor
End If
End Sub
i'd like to use a macro to loop through a range of cells and change the interior color index based on the cell values (ex. if cell value < 10, set interior to blue, if cell value > 400, set to green) i'm trying a for each loop with an if statement but i keep getting syntax errors, i know this is probably a simple problem but i'm not experienced in vb,
View 4 Replies View RelatedI need to change the color of a specific cell when conditions are met in a different cell and it seems like it may be beyond the scope of simply applying conditional formatting. What vba code would look like in proper syntax to make the following statement true. IF cell value Q4 is >=cell value S4 AND cell value R4 is <100 Then cell Q4 turns red and IF cell value Q4 is >= cell value S4 AND cell value R4 =100 then cell Q4 turns green. it may also be useful to know that the "cell values" in this example will be dates and not straight values. this may be possible to do using conditional formatting, but i cannot find a formula that works.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWe use a several Excel files to keep track of who has booked retail space with us. We have a main sheet that has every space within every shopping Mall we deal with. We then have different files for each Mall (this is so we can email the file to the shopping mall to show who is booked in each space but they don't see all the other shopping malls details). We have the other files set-up to read information from the main sheet so when we update a cell with the booked companies name it updates a cell on the relevant file.
This part all works fine, but we also change the booked companies colour depending on if they have they have paid, not paid or awaiting invoice. Currently we change this by hand on the main file then on the other files. I am hoping someone maybe able to explain a way of adding to the formula we already use to update the relevant cells automatically to enable the font (or cell if its easier) colour change to be carried across to the other files.
I have a large workbook, with multiple sheets. I would like to be able to select a name from a drop down menu, and have the cell color change for all entries of that name in my other sheets. I can do it manually, but it would be much cleaner and easier to have Excel do it for me. I have looked at other answers here on this forum and know that if it can be done,

Lets say in colum A I have a list of items, in colum B i have a check box, currently the check box is red, if i tpye a x it turns green due to conditional formating. That works fine...onto the problem...
Lets say in colum A i have my items but they are repeated...eg A1, A145, A166, A122 are all the same item, what i want is regardless of where i place the x each check box under coloum B either gets a X and turns green, or just turns green, i dont mind...
I dont think conditional formatting can cut this, though i may be wrong. Ive tried to use the IF function under condtional formatting but ran into problems...
I'm new to VBA. I'm trying to write a macro that toggles between three or more font colors for the cells that are selected. I started with the "record macro" feature and then tinkered with the code because I obviously don't have a very good understanding of this process yet. How would I go about writing a code like this?

I am currently using an Intersect statement in a worksheet module to perform two things:
1. Insert a time stamp into row 2 when row 1 has a price inserted
2.To clear that time stamp if the price is deleted at some later date.
My problem is with the time stamp value being deleted by the user.
If I try to clear the price (now that the time cell =empty) I get a Runtime error 91 - Object Variable or With block variable not set.
I would like to convert this code to a select case statement but I'm not sure how to do this in this situation. Would error coding be appropriate in this instance?
Is it possible to return a value, via an IF statement, depending on the font style of a cell?
What I want to do is this...Check to see if a the font in the cell has a strikethrough, if it does, return 0, else return the value in the cell.
i have had to change the quarters that our company works in and in doing so have to make some changes to my VBA code. our quarters have moved back 1 month so Q1 = Dec/Jan Feb now.
below is a copy of the code that used to make the associated cell font color red depending on the current date. i need to change it to be relevant to the new quarter structure.
[Code] .....
As you can see if the month value is less than 4 (jan/feb/march) it will highlight red....however i dont know how to change the range to specifiy the ranges 12,1,2 as per the new quarter structure.
How to change these defaults...
It involved opening a new workbook and changing the number of worksheets in a new workbook, cell sizes, font, and font sizes... and then saving the workbook in one of the system folders under the name "workbook" to change the default workbook attributes, or "worksheet" to change default worksheet attributes.
I have a spreadsheet that will contain about 5-15 rows with a letter "S" in the column. If this letter S appears in the column, I need its entire row to change font color to RED and then change that row's value in column L to a negative number. is there any easy way to do this?

When a workbook is opened, (using OnOpen() ), I trying to get two header titles colors (A2, B2) to change from their usual Black to Red to Black to Red and finally back to Back.

I have 2 cells (B2 and C2) with date format, showing dates from a calendar.
FYI, These cells are NOT in my Calendar.
Now, I need to write a formula for my calendar cells to check these two cells (B2 and C2) and change the color of the cells inside my calendar according to the date sindicated inthese two cells (B2 and C2).
I did this with numbers using conditional formating and it works perfect but doing this with dates is giving me a hard time. Is there a way to do this? below is a link to my excel file.

I'm trying to compare two range values within a macro to see if they match...if they do/don't I capture and write some other data.
One list is lowercase, while the other list is UPPERCASE.
My current macro needs them to be in the same case because I'm using the following to compare:
If VPNID.Value = BuildHRName Then
How can I change the format of one of the lists to UPPERCASE or lowercase so that I am comparing apples to apples?
I am trying to use VBA in Excel 2007 to change bar chart series colors. I have found a few posts that link it to a cell background, but I'm struggling to find one that does the font color.
It would be great if I could change the bar chart series to match the color of the text in the A column, so that if I highlighted the value in A1 and changed the text color to orange for whatever reason, the chart updates the value of 1.2 to an orange bar (see below).

Sample 1 1.2
Sample 2 2.1

View 4 Replies View RelatedI wrote this short program that parses out last name and zip code from one cell into two cells so I can map the sales data. I flagged each sale as either member, non-member, or neither, based on the prices of the items (members get 25% off). I used the case statement below.
the problem is that for one of the sale items it's getting flagged as "neither" despite being at the members price level. it works for that same item in other records. the quantity at error point is 3 for two of the errors and 6 for the third, but the strange thing is it works for a few other sale records in which the person also bought 3 of that item (the quantity is not the culprit, or sole culprit).
Here's the code. Obviously Price and Quant are the two variables involved. I declared Price as a double and Quant as an integer, even though both have two decimal places in the data file. That way the product of Quant and each items price for one and Price will both have only two decimal places even though it was rounding off that product to two decimal points without declaring either variable. I cut out some of the case statement so as not to exceed the character limit.
I have a form with seven check boxes on it. The code that I have been working on is below. Using the select case works exactly as I want it to unless someone checks the combination of boxes that returns a "True" for both "Apples" and "Oranges". If that combination is selected I cannot get the select case to return the correct form. I was trying stay with the select case code but I am not sure that this is the correct approach for what I am trying to accomplish.

If Form1.CheckBox2.Value = True Then X = "Apple"

If Form1.CheckBox5.Value Then X = "Orange"
If Form1.CheckBox6.Value = True Then X = "Orange"
If Form1.CheckBox7.Value = True Then X = "Orange"

I'm trying to put the following into a workable VB code. I don't know whether it is best to use Select Case or If Then statements or whether either can perform the tasks.

Case 2 - Range(N1).Value = M2 Then Range(M1).Value = Range(V1).Value
Case 3 - Range(N1).Value = NO Then Range(M1).Value = Range(U1).Value
