It changes the active cells interior colour.
Can the it be adjusted to change the colour of the last changed cell (or range)
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim strRow As String
Cells.FormatConditions.Delete
With Target.EntireRow
strRow = .Address
.FormatConditions.Delete
.FormatConditions.Add Type:=xlExpression, _
Formula1:="=COUNTA(" & strRow & ")>0"
.FormatConditions(1).Font.Bold = True
.FormatConditions(1).Interior.ColorIndex = 8
End With
End Sub
I have a workbook that has 1800 sheets, some have a grey (VBA colour 15)filled cell somewhere in column A (varying no.s of rows) that I want to keep. Some have no filled cells at all in column A and I want to delete the sheet.
I am using Office 2007 and have successfully used the Cells.Interior.Color to change cells fill color. I would like to be able to undo these changes. Depending on the data entered I am changing the color but I may need to change it back to white. When I use the Cells.Interior.Color = vbWhite the cell fill changes to white but the cell border is gone. Is there a way undo the color change and have the cell border show up?
How to sort out a way to count cells whose fill colors have been set via conditional formatting.
I'm sure that I was once able to use Chip Pearson's CountOfCF function back in the days of Excel 2003, as it worked around the 3 condition limit and used .ColorIndex which assumed that you'd only ever be formatting using the .ColorIndex values of 1 to 56, but I can't seem to be able to get it to work in 2010.
So I have a macro that colors the selected cells in a certain color. Now im looking for a code that will switch that color every 7th cell, the cells will only be selected horizontally. For example:
if the selected range is 10 cells, 7 of them should be in one color and 3 of the should be in another. But if the selected range is 15 cells the first 7 should have one color and the next 7 should have another and then the last one should have the first color again, and so on..
I want a cell to be equal to another cell including the colour, conditional formatting as the colour will have no relevance to the cell value i.e. the colour will be set manually dependant on what stage of the lifecycle it is at
The original cell may have a date and be yellow and I want the target cell to be yellow with the same date, if someone then changes the original cell to be red the target cell should automatically change to Red
Is there an easy way to do this or do I need some VB script?
I have a spreadsheet where I can change the colour of a cell by clicking the mouse, I also have text in many of the cells.
What I need to do is protect (lock) the text so that no one can change the text in any of the cells, but I still want to be able to change the colour of the cells by clicking the mouse in that cell.
I have developed a profit loss sheet for the office I work for. What i need is to have either cells change colour or the numbers in the cell change colour depening on the value in the cell.
What I was thinking is if the number is over 15% of the sale price the cell or number should be green, if the number is under 15% it should be black, and if its below 0% it will be red.
Can I use a CountIf formula to count coloured cells that have been formatted? I tried to use a CountIf formula to count the % but because some of the warning and failing % are different that would distort my results.
A macro that only selects cells which are coloured light green. I need this so that I can add it to an existing macro that I've written to remove conditional formatting from these cells only.
I know I've written a formula like this ages ago, but I can't seem to recall. I want to write a formula that says to look at a table of cells, and to sum all cells that are highlighted a certain colour.
When I use the colorfunction it works, but I have changed the cells to have different color based on conditional formatting, and now the colorfunction isn't reading the fill color.
Is it possible to select a number of cells that are say yellow when blank but once someone type "N" or "No", they change to blue and if "Y" or "Yes" they change to green. I tried conditional formatting but it does not change the blank range to yellow until I have entered something into it.
Do While Cells(iCount, 5).Interior.ColorIndex <> xlColorIndexNone Cells(iCount, 5).Value = Cells(iCount, 5).Interior.ColorIndex iCount = 1 + iCount 'increment by 1 each loop Loop
End Sub
I get what the loop is doing but I am not sure what the Interior is referring to. When I looked it up I saw it can be a property or an object but I am not sure exactly what it means, why you need it and in what other cases you may use it? I am so confused about this I don't even know what to ask?
If I had to guess I think it means the the property of the individual cells but in that case I don't see where the object comes in?
A column of cells can be 1o different shades of green according to their value (achieved by using conditional formatting.) I want to arrange that at a certain time all the cells of a part of the row of a formatted cell are the same colour.
Is there a way to automatically conditionally format each column in each row, when either open, closed or cancelled is selecting from a drop down in the Status column. For example every cell is blank in colour, but if I select open in the drop down menu for row A2, the entire row will turn Red. Just wondered if there is a way instead of individually formatting every row separately. I would like to be able to copy the formula or whatever down the entire sheet.
i want to take the count for different colour cells in the excel. ex, if green colour in any particular cell, it has to take only green colour count & same like yellow & so on...
I am using the following code to amend the colour of a cell when a name is entered in ROW J however, i need it to colour the row from A to O on the line the name is entered on.
So for example Dave is in j2 (j1 is a header) the line from A2 to o2 goes green.
I have tried a few things with interesting results but not get desired result.
I'm designing a holiday chart in work, and am using conditional formatting to colour cells. The problem is I have more than 3 conditions. Consequently I need to use a macro.
