Changing Color Of Selected Range Of Cells Using Macro

Jun 17, 2013

I'm trying to create a macro that will change the color of the cells I've selected to green. My selection will vary depending on what cells I'm trying to color green (not a fixed range). My current code only changes one cell of my selected range:

Sub IN_PCA()
'
' IN_PCA Macro
'
'
ActiveCell.Select
Range("M243").Activate
With Selection.Interior

[Code] .......

I've tried using "ActiveRange" in lieu of "ActiveCell" as well as other commands that would seem to be correct but have failed.

Change Color Of A Range Of Cells When Condition Is In Just One Cell

Sep 17, 2012

I have a conditional cell that change color or not if condition...OK so far. Now, how can I change the color of a range of cells when condition is in just one cell. Ex:

If C15>=150, change (C3;C20) to yellow.

I really can't find the way to do it.

Change Font Color In A Range Based On One Cells Information

Jul 28, 2009

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...

Vba To Change Color Of Selected Cell

Feb 5, 2008

As an example:

Cells C7:F7 are currently shaded light green. Cells G7:L7 are shaded light blue. M7 is shaded dark blue. N7:Q7 are shaded light yellow and R7:T7 are shaded light gray.

When any cell in that range (C7:T7) is clicked (selected), I want the cell color to change to it's normal color; like light yellow to yellow, light blue to blue, dark blue to blue, light green to green and finally light gray to gray.

These cells represent headings for a database. When a heading is selected, the database will sort by that column and the header will change colors. I can do the sort code.

If another header is chosen, the previous selection will need to revert back to it's lighter color and the new selection will change as above... so only ONE cell will be changed from it's "normal state" color at a time. This will serve as an indicator as to which column is being used for the sort. To the user, it will have the appearance of switching on and off.

If any other cell on the sheet is selected, then this should not trigger an event change.

Change Color Of Row When Cell Is Selected

May 22, 2007

I have a spreadsheet containing many rows of data that I need people to review. After reviewing the data in the column, a reviewer must enter comments in the right-most column and then hit the Enter key to move to the next row down.

What I'd like to happen -- As a reviewer selects the cell where they need to enter data, I want the entire row to highlight. I can use conditional formatting to change the color of the row once data is entered, but I want to change the color of the row when a specific cell is selected. I've attached a sample spreadsheet.

Conditional Formatting Conflict: Change The Cells Font Color And Bolding As Long As The Value Is Within That Date Range

Oct 19, 2006

I have two conditions setup in Options>View - Zero Values.", "style="background: #FFFFFF;padding: 2px;font-size: 10px;width: 550px;"");' onmouseout='GAL_hidepopup();'>formatting.htm" target="_blank">conditional formatting. The first is setup for alternate row coloring with this formula inside Conditional Formatting:

Formula is = MOD(ROW(),2)

My Second Condition is

Cell Value is between $P$10 and $Q$10. This sets the font bold and a different color. The two cell values are two dates. I want to change the cells font color and bolding as long as the value is within that date range. It works fine, but for cells that are on the row that is colored the second condition doesn't apply for some reason.

Fill Range Of Cells With Text When Listbox Option Selected - Clear When Not Selected

Jul 25, 2014

I am using this code to hide or unhide rows of text on another sheet:

VB:
Sub ProcessSheet1ChangeOnCellJ7(ByVal Target As Range)

Dim sAddress As String
Dim sValue As String

'Get the address of the cell that changed without '$' signs
sAddress = Target.Address(False, False)

[Code]....

When the "Not Pursuing" list box option is selected (in cell "J7" or "J8" in Sheet 1) I need to add (or over-write) "Not Pursuing" to the range of cells in column "B" (in the "Tasks" sheet), but only for that particular Goal, meaning a limited range of cells in column "B". If the "Pursuing - Show All Tasks" option is selected for a Goal then these same cells need to be blank so that the appropriate person can enter their name into the cell.

The purpose for adding "Not Pursuing" automatically to these yellow highlighted cells is that it will facilitate filtering of tasks by individual in the "Tasks" sheet..

Again I have tried several times to upload a sample file and am unable to, which I know makes it more difficult to solve. (Is there some common mistake people make? I know it's an allowed format and is very small in file size....)

Code solution can be entered directly beneath:

VB:
If Target.Value = "Not Pursuing" Then
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Tasks").Rows("29:29").EntireRow.Hidden = False
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Tasks").Rows("30:48").EntireRow.Hidden = True

Color Selected Cells

Feb 16, 2008

When you are on a spreadsheet and you use the arrow keys on the keyboard to move from one cell to another and you can see the cell you are on because of the lines, is there a way to have the color of those lines a different color than black? I would like to be able to arrow from one cell to another and have the lines be red or green so that I can see easier which cell I am actually on. Sometimes it can be hard to see which cell you are. Even if I could make those lines bolder to show up clearer which cell I am on.

Change Event Code When 2 Cells Are Selected

Jul 15, 2014

Looking for a Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) code to concatenate cell J, K, E and F cells when both J6 and K6 are selected. The cells start in J6 and K6. When both J6 and K6 are selected, I would like a VBA code to concatenate J6, K6, E6 and F6 in cell L6

(Here is the formula =IF(OR(J6="",K6=""),"",I6&" "&J6 &" "&K6&" - "&E6&" "&" "&F6 I have but looking for a VBA code to accomplish task).

When either J6 or K6 is selected, the code should not concatenate until both cells (J and K) are selected. I would also like a Clear Contents function to clear L6 (or L7, L100, L80 or L13) contents when either J or K cell is deleted. For example, if K value is deleted, the Clear Contents should clean J and L cells contents.

Fill Color Change With Range

Nov 24, 2008

Function BG(InRange As Range)
Range("InRange").Select
With Selection.Interior
.ColorIndex = 6
.Pattern = xlSolid
End With
End Function

That so far but not quite sure why that isnt working. I want to change the fill color with a UDF that all they do is select a Range and it changes those fill colors to whatever the Colorindex may be. I didnt find anything while searching the forums with this already.

Cells Automatically Change Color

Sep 25, 2007

I have been given a spreadsheet that turns whole rows different colours when certain data is entered into a cell. I want to locate the code and use it elsewhere, but cant find it?

I have looked at all of the change related procedures in the drop downs, for the Workbook e.g.

Workbook_SheetChange

but no matter where I cant seem to find any code at all.

Is there a way of exporting every line of code and then open this file in notepad to skim through it?

how I might find the code that is making the rows turn different colours?

I want this candidate name to turn red once I type his name in November/December tab.

Change Cell Color If Another Cells Content Is Yes Or No

Apr 3, 2009

I have a large workbook with some tasks.

My problem is:

I have 8 columns with info.

In the second column i type a part number and in the third one i type "Yes" or "No".

I wanted to make the second columns cell turn red if the third column's value is Yes or white if the value is No.

Is possible to do that with the help of a formula, conditional formating or vba?

I prefer to use a formula or the conditional formating.

I searched the net but i found a solution if the third column contains a number not a text.
