Color Entire Row If Cell In Columns Contains Specific Word
Jun 13, 2008
how to format a row based on text that is in a certain column. For instance, if a cell in column B has text in it I need to format the entire rest of the row with a certain background color and text color. I've been searching around here for a while and I think I'm really close, but I just can't seem to nail it down. Here's the code that I've worked on so far.
Sub Reformat()
Dim SrchRng3
Dim c3 As Range
Set SrchRng3 = ActiveSheet.Range("B1", ActiveSheet.Range("B65536").End(xlUp))
Set c3 = SrchRng3.Find("Europe - *", LookIn:=xlValues)
Do
I've been trying to come up with a conditional that will format a row if a cell contains any instance of a given word.
I know the following will format rows containing the EXACT entry of "apple" in column E: =$E1="apple"
But I'd like a conditional that will find entries like "apple pie" and "crabapple" as well. I'm sure it's a simple solution, using a SEARCH function or something...but I can't figure it out.
I'm trying to have a macro run to search a specific column (S) for a particular text value "y" and if true it will change the font to bold and the color to red for the entire row of the cell that contains the "y". the column is part of a data table that is constantly refreshed not sure if that makes a difference or not.
I need to conduct keyword searches in excel and color the keywords a different color without changing the font color of the entire cell. now, i found some code from another thread that does this, but i cant seem to get it to work with more than 2 keywords. i need fine-tuning the provided code to do what i need it to do.

the VBA code i used was this:

I was playing around with the example, the Cat_Mouse.xlsm, and when i modified the 'myList' and 'myColor' arrays, it does not work.
Cat_Mouse.xlsm
For example, I modified the code to add the word bat:
[Code] .....
When i run the macros, the word "Bat" does not become colored red. interestingly enough, when i substitute the word "bat" for the word "hat" in the "myLIST array, the word "hat" does change to the red font.
I am looking to use this code to address keywords in my excel file by coloring all key words red and i have more than 10 key words.
The following sub will look in the file ("FY09 SOF"), in column "A", search for the strings that begin with "2109", "3009", or ends in "-1", and copy the entire row. It will then paste these in the file ("FY09 PR Log Blank").
I also need it to look in column "C" in the ("FY09 SOF") file and pull the entire row if it finds the word "Payroll".
For some reason it will pull everything needed except the "Payroll" rows. What am I doing wrong?
Sub get_data() Dim wb As Workbook, wbDest As Workbook Dim ws As Worksheet, wsDest As Worksheet Dim lngCalc As Long Dim FoundCells As Range Dim FoundCell As Range
Set wb = Workbooks("FY09 SOF") Set wbDest = Workbooks("FY09 PR Log Blank") Set wsDest = wbDest.Worksheets("Paste all here, then sort")
With Application .ScreenUpdating = False..........................
I have a spreadsheet with 12 coloums. In the last coloum are the ords "yes", "no", or is empty (null?). I need to find a way to have each row that contains the word "no" or is empty to be highlighted in red font and bold type. When the word "yes" is typed then the font is black and the type in normal. This allows me to see at a glance what orders have not been picked up or have problems.
1. By entering a numerical value in Cell A1 for example typing 5. 2. Then, next five columns would be blocked with specific color. 3. if i am typing 10, then 10 columns would be blocked with specific color.
I plucked a macro off an old post from here (as I always do), but I'm having trouble tweaking it.
VB: Sub completedtest()
Dim c As Range Dim rngG As Range For Each c In Intersect(ActiveSheet.UsedRange, Columns("i"))
[Code] ....
As it currently stands, the macro selects the entire row of rows containing the letter Y in column I. All I need to change is, I want to simply select columns B through I, rather than the entire row.
I have been trying to find a way of formatting an entire row based on the contents of cells in each column. However i come unstuck when trying to make the column dynamic. Below is an example:
Month 2010 2011 2012
[Code]....
The idea is that i say current year is 2011 and all rows where C contains an a will turn green. What i would like to achieve is that when i change current year to say 2012 the conditional formatting adjusts so that it looks at D instead of C.
I am trying to create the ability to search for a word in specific columns. In my case below I want to search D5:E500 but it's not working. It searches the whole ppage.
Private Sub searchfind_Click() Dim searches As String searches = searchfirstname & searchlastname If WorksheetFunction.CountIf(Range("D5:E500"), searches) = 0 Then Exit Sub End If Cells.Find(What:=searches, After:=ActiveCell, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlDown, _ MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate End Sub
What I want to do is select all rows that contain the word conveyor in it. So far I have managed to select all the cells, I have also managed to select the entire row but one row at a time, I have even been able to turn all the cells a different color but I just want to highlight them for other formatting, copying, and several other things that need to be done. I have other documents this could be very useful in too so i want to make it a generic multi-line highlight rather than adding the formatting into the formula.
I need my macros to search for the word "Cancel" or "Cancelled" in columns "T" and "U". Once found, I need the macros to make that entire row an opaque shading.
There will be other wording in these cells that contain "Cancel" or "Cancelled". Is it possible for the macros to search in the sentence and find the words "Cancel" or "Cancelled"
My worksheet has two sheets which has daily continued data. I want to copy two entire columns E and F from Sheet 1 and then in Sheet 2 I want to find a particular word "80 Percent" and then insert two new Entire columns before that word. And after that I want to paste that copied columns of sheet1 in those newly created columns of sheet 2. Is it really possible because the cell reference of the word "80 Percent" in Sheet 2 will change daily. How to create the macro codes for this.
I have a macro that changes the color on a row, but depending on which cell I am in different columns arwe changing color. What I want is that if I make a change in row 1 want the color in A1:L1 to change and if i change row 2 i want A2:L2 to change, so alwaws the columns A to L in respective row. My macro
Sub Markera_Ny() Dim intRadnr As Integer Dim intStartrad As Integer Dim intSlutrad As Integer Dim Box As Integer Dim Rad As Integer intRadnr = ActiveCell.Row intStartrad = ActiveSheet.Range("First").Row intSlutrad = ActiveSheet.Range("Last").Row If intRadnr < intStartrad Or intRadnr >= intSlutrad Then MsgBox "Macro can only be executed in rows 21 to 1000" Exit Sub End If....................
Using conditional formatting is it possible shade an entire row when a cell is = to 0. I am currently creating a spreadsheet for a small amount of inventory. I am manually editing the amount of product available.
What I want to happen is when I replace them number with the text ‘Sold Out’ I want then entire row to automatically grey that row out. Is it possible to make this happen using conditional formatting?
I am trying to do, is paste a word in front of text that is already residing in cell throughout an entire column, and then automate this process by creating a macro that will do the same thing for me throughout an entire column. To best explain this, it woudl be like if you have a column 100 rows/cells long, and every cell already contains data. I need to insert something in front of what lies within each cell.
I used this macro to find the duplicates in column B:
Sub KryDups() ScreenUpdating = False FirstItem = ActiveCell.Value SecondItem = ActiveCell. Offset(1, 0).Value Offsetcount = 1 Do While ActiveCell <> "" If FirstItem = SecondItem Then ActiveCell.Offset(Offsetcount, 0).Interior.Color = RGB(255, 0, 0) Offsetcount = Offsetcount + 1 SecondItem = ActiveCell.Offset(Offsetcount, 0).Value Else ActiveCell.Offset(Offsetcount, 0).Select FirstItem = ActiveCell.Value SecondItem = ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Value Offsetcount = 1 End If Loop ScreenUpdating = True End Sub
The duplucate cells are now red in color. (RGB(255, 0, 0)). How do I now code VB to delete the rows in column B where the cell color is red? Here is some of the code that I tried:................
1). For each cell that in the range that has a Red background delete the entire column I have attached a sample spreadsheet where I have tried to do this. It's not quite working. It does not seem to work when there are RED cells next to each other.
I know that I can do a simple thing like column("A:A"), but I'd rather have it in a loop as in the sample code, in case the columns change in the future.
2). The second task is to delete the rows in the spreadsheet where the first cell in the row is a blank.
Code that will highlight a entire row when a cell from a column has a value of 0. It will check all the cell from Column C1:C100 and check all the cells that contains a 0 value. Need to highlight the entire row that contains this cell value and fill it in orange color.
I am using the formula below to calculate the number of days left to do something, when there are no days left I want the cell to display "Begun" in red italic text. Is it possible to do that via this formula or is a macro needed? =IF(ISBLANK(E2),"",IF((E2-I2)<0,"",E2-I2-10&(" Days")))
I need a vba code that will find all the columns (j) which there cell(1,j) includes the word "Date". the word "date" will be a part of a title, for exmple: "due date", "starting date"
I am currently using this formula - =SUMPRODUCT(--(MONTH(Leads!B3:B999)=1),--(YEAR(Leads!B3:B999)=2013),--((Leads!J3:J999)="Contract"))
This gives me the count of rows that have Jan as the month, 2013 as the year and Contract word in column J. Now I want to add another column to be checked. That column has values in format - Design: X, Design: Y, Design: Z etc.
So I want to have the condition above and the cells that have the word Design.
I need to pull a specific word from a string of text in a cell and have that word shown in an adjacant cell. For example A1 will contain the text "Smith Sun Alliance Pension Fund" I need B2 to show "Pension". I cannot use any filtering or text to columns as the word Pension can be anywhere within the text in A1 and I have thousands of entries. So I need a function.
I have a large spreadsheet with about 18000 rows or data and about 60 columns. I need to a macro to find a specific word in a column like "charge" and anytime that word is found in the column to insert a blank cell in front of it.
Currently the sheet looks like this:Fee AChargeFeeChargeFee AChargeFeeChargeFee AChargeFee AChargeNeed to get it to look like this: (so I can sort and subtotal)Fee AChargeFee AChargeFee AChargeFee ACharge
Sub Test() For Each Cell In Sheets(1).Range("J:J") If Cell.Value = "131125" Then
[Code]....
This works great except that it pastes formulas. I would like to paste values only. I've tried " PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _ :=False, Transpose:=False" and it gives me an error.
I'm trying to come up with a macro that can delete an entire column based on formatting of the cells. Basically what I have is a range of cells, and if all cells in a particular column have no fill color, then delete the entire column.
