I have a spreadsheet with 114 rows and I would like to write code that will color all the even numbered rows blue. I've tried using the macro recorder and then adjusting the code, but I keep getting error messages.
In my Excel 2003 worksheet, I need the row color to automatically change to blue (color 5) (bgcolor = #0000FF) - when the user changes the text from VALID to INVALID in the range: B3:B65000.
For example:
Cell B5 contains the text: VALID
When the user changes the text in the field to read: INVALID - then I need the row range: A5:W5 to change to the color blue.
I have a column that has a date in it. If the day of the date = 07 (Ex: 08/07/2009 or 12/07/2009 etc etc) then I want to alter the font color of the ROW to be blue...or even just the text....
When using the autofilter, the drop-down arrow turns blue in color, i.e., when some filter citerion is being used, the small down-arrow turns a different color as a way of informing the user that a filter is in place. Is there a way to control the color of this? Currently, mine turns blue, but it would be more useful if I could change it to a brilliant color in order to make it contrast more with the default black. Blue is too difficult to be distinguished by my eyes. The autofilter is turned on via a macro. If there a line of code that controls the color.
I have these light blue lines showing up on my sheet. I have "not boarders" selected and they do not print - but I can see them on the screen. Does anyone know how I can get rid of them?
I'm using conditional formatting for column k that turns the cells blue (RGB 0, 0, 255) if the condition is met. I want to be able to delete all other cells where the condition is not met using a macro.
I want to make all the cells that are outputted as blank by my formula a certain color to distinguish them from non blank cells. my current formula: [B1=IF(A1=0,"",A1)]. my guess would be to use an [AND] function but I do not know how to command a cell to change color without using the toolbar.
I have a spreadsheet that uses many columns, and I have already used all 3 conditional formats. 4 if you include the original format. VBA code that will turn the whole row Orange with a dark blue font, if the cell in the row says "Enrolled"?
I am running into a roadblock, I have added an auto filter to my spread sheet, however now when I use it the filters I select are not showing up on the column that is being filtered. For some reason they are 2 -10 colums over, a totally seprate column it is kinda weird.
I am unable to unhide some rows on a sheet. Row 1 though 34 the row numbers are blue. After that row 65 and on are black. I can unhide columns but not the rows. By the way row 35 through 64 are missing or hidden. How do I unhide everything?
This might be a simple answer but... if A1 had the date 1-Jan-2010, what formula would I used, within conditional formatting, to make that cell turn blue once 90 has passed? So the cell should turn blue on 1-Apr-2010.
I have the total sales for a company. Then I have four specific segments that fall under those sales. Two out of the four segments I have exact sales figures for. The other two segments I just have the year-end sales and the dollar increase in each quarter. Is there a way to solve in excel for the missing quarters. So each of the four segments would have to add up to the total sales for both the quarter and the year. I've attached my example spreadsheet too. There are two cells missing highlighted in blue but i'm going to try to obtain that data. provided i fill in those two blanks, is there way to back into the rest of this spreadsheet?
I have tried to define an alternative start-up folder (my goal is to have a PUBLIC.XLSB to store Macros every one can use)
BUT: When I do this, Excel does not start with any open workbook anymore. It starts with a blue background, and need to click "New" first for a workbook to open and work in.
How do I avoid this? One solution that would work, but requires the user to have Macros activated, is to add a workbook during the opening of Excel, but I would like to avoid this.
Using 2003, I'm trying to do the following, data starting in A3, and ending in L3:-
- If A3 is blank, cells have no format - If A3 has a value, with A4 blank, fill is light blue and bottom line solid, top line dotted - If A3 has a value, and A4 does too, fill is light blue, top and bottom line dotted - If H3, which is a date field, is greater than today font is black, if less than today, font is red
I need some assistance in creating a MsgBox when an excel spreadsheet is opened and more specifically a particular sheet is opened. I'd like the Msgbox to say "Do not forget to select frequency in the blue shaded fields." I have read a guide which says just add a module in the spreadsheet eg.
Sub Msgbox () Msgbox "Do not forget to select frequency in the blue shaded fields." End Sub
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).
I have a range of cells that change colors with conditional formats based on the cell value from high to low. I would like to link the cell color to an object such as a circle or rectangle. When the cell value changes along with the conditional format, the color of the object will also change.
One of the action's on a large group of the controls is the same but except for one number
here is an example
If TextBox107.ForeColor = 255 Then ActiveCell. Offset(0, 53).Font.ColorIndex = 3 If TextBox108.ForeColor = 255 Then ActiveCell.Offset(0, 54).Font.ColorIndex = 3 If TextBox109.ForeColor = 255 Then ActiveCell.Offset(0, 55).Font.ColorIndex = 3
This makes a cell that correlates to the textbox red if the text in the textbox is red.
Now, I loads of these textboxes that all need to run the same code with just the Offset value one digit higher than the last and I was hoping I could create a loop to avoid a huge block of code but I can't work out how to make a constant that will +1 with each loop.
Also, can I assume that a loop will start with the control with the lowest number i.e. Textbox1 and then work its way through the rest of them in order?
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 attached the relevant spreadsheet for which I need to alter the color of the columns based on Site number ( Sheet 1). % Mortality will be represented in the Y-Axis, and the Site numbers would be on the X-Axis. All columns (% Mortality) except one will be of the same color, and the one of a different color will indicate a specific site. As an example, site 86 is colored differently. The way I require the chart to look is shown on Sheet 1.
After reading through some great posts on Ozgrid, I managed to do this using conditional formatting (Sheet 2), but that sort of falls short because I am required to add a data table to the chart, and the parameter that is indicated by the column bars happens to appear twice in the data table.
I was wondering if this can be automated maybe using VBA, but with the possibility of simply matching the color of columns with the font color of respective entry in the data series.
I'm trying to add a textbox at the current position (selected cell) with a set size, fill color, and border color. I found this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...8(VS.80).aspx:
This is probably elementary, but I'm struggling and would appreciate any help as I have very little excel VBA experience to draw from.
I have assembled code which changes the cell color based on a value change in Column A. Column A will contain many different groups of repeating values. This code works well and and I have been able to figure out how to limit the number of colors to only 2. The end result is each set of similar values in column A is visually grouped by one of two alternating colors.
The number rows in the data set is variable as the data set is extracted from SAP. The number of columns is fixed.
What I want to do now is set the cell color in columns B through F the same color that was assigned to the row in column A. So if cell A3 is set to colorindex = 6, then I want to set the range of cells B3 to E3 to the same color.
Here is the code I am using to set the color of the cells in Column A:
I would like to be able to change the color of a cell in V4:AB31 and have the formula in AM10:AM13 automatically calculate the new result. As it is now the user has to press Ctrl ALT f9 for the formula to recalculate.
I have two columns. The first one (A) contains cells that have different Fill colors. The second column (B) contains text adjacent to the colored cells. I am trying to change the color of the text in the second column (B) to the corresponding color in the adjacent cell in the first column (A). I don't think conditional formating works well in this situation. I believe the solution would be some sort of macro.
