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.

[URL] and how I could modify the conditional formatting/vba to return the same effect but for a selected range, not just a cell?

I have an excel sheet in which many cells have a background color of Green. These cells are located all over the sheet. I want to change the background color from Green to Red not affecting the color of other cells in the sheet.
I will be realy really thankful, as I have to do this exercise for more than 50 worksheets.......If I start doing it manually by selecting each celll with green color background and changing it to red.....you can well imagine my condition.....my life would get shorten significantly while doing this.

I have the following code that allow me to select all of the cells with the color same as the active cell within a selected range:
Sub SelectCellColor()
Dim CellColorFormat As Long
Dim RangeString
[Code]....
I'd like to ask how can I fix the error so that there will not be a limit of the number of colored cells in a selected area?

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.

I have a worksheet with ever expanding data - rows at the bottom of the data
are continually added. I have a simple macro that sorts all of the data
according to preset parameters and selects the next blank cell in column A,
ready for more data:
Sub Macro5()
Range("SortRange").Select
Selection.Sort Key1:=Range("SortRange"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:= _
xlGuess, OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, Orientation:= _
xlTopToBottom
Do Until ActiveCell.Value = IsEmpty(True)
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Activate
Loop
End Sub
When running the Macro, this leaves all of the cells in the range 'selected'
(ie; coloured-over). What do I need to add to the Macro to just select the
cell in Column A and remove the highlighting from all the other cells?

I have a spread sheet with large number of data, problem is all are in various currency so rather than typing =#####.##/a1 in every cell to get the GBP amount (a1 where my exchange rate is linked) I thought if there is macro can do this job for rme.
So what i need is macro which once run enter the formula after the numbers already in the cell in selected or given range.

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

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.

I have no knowledge of VB programming and the conditional formatting seems limited. I want to change to the color of cells to yellow if the cell value is greater than 80 but less than 99, and if it is 100 or greater to fill red. Is this possible and if so can it be applied to a range of cells?

I am trying to create a model that has a mixture of conditional formatting and data validation formulas within it, but have run into a problem in one area. Essentially, cell E10 is a Validation which pulls a drop down list of names. One of the options in this list is "Other".
I want to create a VBA code to make sure that cell E12 will get rid of any input, turn grey (color index = 15), and potentially lock (if possible!) if the "Other" is chosen by the user in cell E10. If any other value is chosen for cell E10, Cell E12 needs to remain unlocked and white (color index=2).

I am using Windows 7 and Excel 2010.
Is there a way to create a macro to color code a cell based on the value in a cell, and then look up a value in a table, then color code it based on where it fits into the table?
I have a table of values for about 30 projects. In column g - there is a CPI value (see bold column)
Example: Project ID
Name
Program
PMT
SI ID
AC
Milestone
TCP Level
[Code] ......
Here is the table:
I have to color code a cell, base on the CPI and how it fits into the table below. So if the current Milestone is M2 or M3 and the CPI calculated is .14 the cell would be colored RED, if the CPI number is 2.01 for M2-M3 I would want cell to be colored Turquiose. If we were at Milestone M6 and the CPI was 2.01, it would be colored blue. If the CPI was .75 at Milestone M5, it would be colored Green
LEGEND
Earned Value Limits
Milestone
RED
Yellow
Green
Turquoise
Blue
M2-M3
2.15
M4-M6
1.66
M7-M11
1.26

I have this code:
Code:
If .Range("K" & t) = "AUTO" Then
.Range("K" & t) = Format(Application.VLookup(.Range("A" & t), rcore, 54, False), "h:mmA/P")
With .Range("K" & t)[code]....
It is intended to change the font colour to white when the cell = "AUTO". It does, but it also changes the contents of the cell (like NA, and NR) to white when they aren't equal to AUTO.

I am looking to change the color of my text through a macro, which is fine. But I want to change the color according to a date key. So every time I update my date once a week, a new series is "blacked in". The series has the link already in it, I just need it to change color (to black) every time I update it.

I have a spreadsheet that i download from the net daily, which is seperated into columns of information.
I want to be able to look down a column and mark a cell in a seperate column if the cell font text is red.
For example looking down column A ... if the font text of a1 is red then mark the cell background colour of T1 red - if a2 text colour is red then mark the cell T2 red .... etc etc.
If the font colour in a1 or a2 ... etc etc is any other colour then do nothing.
I have 5 columns I wish to look down and mark in 5 seperate columns - I have tried to do this by conditional formating but don't know the fomula for checking font colour.

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.

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).
T. A1 B1
Sample 1 1.2
Sample 2 2.1
Sample 3 1.7
Sample 4 5.6

I did a search on this site and found some code I was looking for (see link:
http://www.excelforum.com/excel-prog...e-in-cell.html - Leith Ross's response code).
The code works perfectly, however, if I save the workbook with a different spreadsheet on top than the spreadsheet referred to in this code, I get an error message: Method 'Range' of object '_Worksheet' failed.
I should state that I did change "Private Sub Workbook_Open()" to "Private Sub Auto_Open()".
I assume I need to modify the code but am unsure as to how.

I am working on some code to copy data from one sheet to another, but I'm not sure if I'm going about defining the copy range correctly. I would like it so that the user can highlight a range of cells on the sheet between A3 and F last row (last row based on col C). However the user should be able to highlight rows in any column between A and F, and they could highly the records with just one column or multiple columns. It should take the row numbers of the highlighted range and use the that as the row number to extract the data from.
[Code] ........
Im currently getting runtime error 13 on 'CopyRange = Selection.Rows'
'CopyRange = Selection.Row' returns the single row number for the first cell in the selection, but i need the range of all the rows in the selection.

The VBA code (in the code window) runs nicely on the range B10:B1000, but I'd prefer that it only run on a range I define by the cells that are currently highlighted/selected on the active sheet. How should the line of
Set SHOPS = Range("B10:B1000")

I think I have the comand to select a range of cells, but can not figure how to paste this selection later in the spreadsheet.
This is how the application works.
I have a spreadsheet that I am using as a template. The first 10 rows have to be repeated later in the same spreadsheet after I make a manual page break.
I the spreadsheet I am doing the following commands:
With xlApplication.ActiveSheet
xlPageBreakManual
.Rows(istartrow).Pagebreak = xlPageBreakManual
End With

I have a macro which sorts data within a cell. This is working perfectly fine but the only problem with this is that it works only for a single which is selected. How can I apply this macro to range of cells I select using a mouse.

I am using Excel 2010 and basically i am trying to fill a range of cell with a green color if any value was enter in a specific cells. Example: I would like to fill range: A10:c13 with a green color (regardless of the cells content in this range) if a value was entered in cell C10 or C11 or C12 or C13.
I've tried conditional formatting but unfortunately I'll have to apply formatting for every cell and for a range of over hundred cells is not efficient.

I need a list on worksheet 2 for each individual person showing;
(1) total number of cells marked C
(2) total number of cells marked C & NYC combined.

I often find myself in the following situation - I will highlight a range of numbers to see what the sum is in the bottom right hand corner (the cells which I select areoften not all within the same column or are not consecutively listed under each other) .Depending on the circumstances I will then type out a SUM formula with the range to put that value somewhere in the spreadsheet - the problem being that I have to deselect the cells and then re-select these within the formula. When I have selected many numbers, it is not always easy to remember every number which I included.
As a way to remember the numbers, I format those cells in a certain colour before I do the SUM formula and would then include only those coloured cells in the formula. I would like to avoid this extra bit of work.
I am new to VBA but would like some form of code that allows me sum the contents of a selected range and paste that formula beneath the last value in the range - the range would have been selected before running the maco.

I have a data that is split into multiple cells and needs to concatenated. Unfortunately, the number of columns wherein lies the data varies throughout the workbook. As such, I wanted to select a range of cells, define this range as the reference point for the macro, run the macro, then move on (selecting a different number of columns on the next try).
For example, I have this:
A
B
C
D
E
1
No
Not Very Far
[Code] .....
I want to select cells A1:B1, run a macro concatenated the two columns, then select cells C1:E and run the same macro to get this:
A
B
1
No
Not Very Far
[Code] ........
So far, I have this:
Code:
ActiveCell.Columns("A:A").EntireColumn.Select
Selection.Insert Shift:=xlToRight, CopyOrigin:=xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove
ActiveCell.Offset(5, 0).Range("A1").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=CONCATENATE(RC[1],RC[2])" '

I have a workbook that has a saved range. I created it with the Name Manager. See below:

When it looks like that the VBA works great and creates my pivots. But after I run my first macro to mess format my source data the range ends up looking like below:
[Code] .......
It is for some reason changing the "A" to "Y".
How I can get it to stay with the original data?
