Coloring Specific Cells By Values

Jan 16, 2010

I'm new here and not really that familiar with excel functions and programming so please forgive me if this is not the right place for my thread

I am wondering how (if possible) I can make this little scenario work:

Lets say I have

cell (A1) with the value 2
cell (B1) with the value 3

Now somewhere else I wish to color some cell to create a 2 by 3 "block".

So coloring 2 cells horizontically (the value of (A1) and 3 cells Vertically (value of (B1)

Macro For Coloring Cells Based On Other Values

Apr 15, 2014

I have two columns, A and B (I technically have a lot more in my sheet but to make it simple just focus on these two columns). The two columns are Company Name and then Company Color. I want to write a macro that based on what color is in Company Code (B1:B500) to highlight Company Name (Column A) based on those values in column B.

Below is an example:

I would want GE to be Red for example.

Company Name
Company Color
Google
White
GE

Coloring Cells By Conditions?

Nov 13, 2011

With a range of cells (a1:ao41) I want to color several cells depending on the value of that particular cell and another color when that particular and a corresponding cell have both the same value. It's some sort of sociogram The first row and column both contains names of students. Let say the students have to choose the three most populair ones to work with and the three most unpopulair ones. Positive ones get the color blue, negative ones get the color yellow. That's easy to do with conditional formatting. But now comes the tricky part. If for instance Student 3 chooses Student 7 and Student 7 chooses Student 3 the color of both cells have to be green if both positive and red if both negative. That's also do-able with conditional formatting, but it most be much easier to do with VBA. I just don't know how .

Coloring Cell Based Off Of Other Cells Date

May 21, 2008

I am trying to make a certain cell range turn red on the week that a cell has listed.

What this is being used for is to track the work of our contractors, and I currently have this set up to auto calculate the jobs that are being done and when, but I would also like to include something in there that when the contractor is set to head back to India, that day forward is listed as "red" under his name. This will allow me to see if I need to extend his work based on the number of hours he has left in his jobs. I will attach the picture of it...on the top you will see dates, and the pivot table on the bottom shows when he will need new work, but I am going to add a field that has the date he is set to leave, this is what I want the coloring of fields to go off of! ...

Forcing Cells To ALWAYS Find MIN And MAXIMUM Values From A Specific Range Of Cells

Feb 1, 2010

I'm working on a project for my company. We make plastic tanks and for quality control we want to start recording the thickness of the tanks in different areas/zones of each tank.

Attached to this message is an Excel sheet that I've been working on. From "Sheet 1", it records inputted thicknesses into WorkSheet "1098". On the top of "1098", it shows all of the recordings, and just below that are the "10 Most Recent Entries".

Right below the "10 Most Recent Entries", there are formulas to calculate the Min and Max Values. Whenever a new entry is recorded, the selected cells for the Min and Max formulas change. Is there a way to force the cells to always stay the same?

Import From CSV And Add Values In Specific Cells?

May 8, 2014

i have a question regarding the import of csv-files. I've seen lots of working import-functions/macros but none of them. So here are my questions:

1) is it possible to import data from a csv-file into specific cells in my worksheet? Let's assume i have a csv-file with 10 INT-Values and they all should be placed in different rows/colums with no regular pattern.

2) If the answer of "1)" equals "yes": how is it possible?

(i thought about importing the csv in an so called "helper-worksheet" and use formula/references inside the table, but to be honest: That's not the solution i like to have)

Return Number Of Cells With The Most Consecutive Specific Values?

Aug 13, 2014

I have a range of say B1:Z2. In row B1:Z1 I have dates in the format dd-mmm-yy. In row B2:Z2 I indicate presence of a person by "P". This is at infrequent appearance i.e. p,p,p,blank,blank,blank,p,p,p,p,p,blank,blank,p,p,blank,p,p,p, etc. I am trying to find or workout a formula that would find the most repetitive Ps in row B2:Z2 and give me the sum thereof. I.e, from the above example it should be 5. It does not have to count specifically P. Something that counts the most non-blank sequence of cells in the range should also do.

Ignoring Specific Values While Selecting Multiple Cells

Dec 20, 2012

I have to correct a spreadsheet that takes a bunch of values and creates an average.

=average(N15;N29;N43;N57;N71;N85;N99;N113;N127;N141;N155;N169;N183;
N197;N211;N225;N241;N255;N269;N283;N301;N315;N329;N343;N357)*100%

I didn't create this. Anyway, the problem is that most of these cells will be empty unless a whole bunch of other stuff is filled. These N cells take several values, put them together and create a new one. As time goes by they are filled. While they aren't filled, they'll return the DIV/0 error.

So when that formula I pasted there uses all of these values, it also returns a DIV/0 error because it is getting info from cells that have this error.

I managed to correct that with this
=averageif(N15:N357;"<>#DIV/0!")*100%

It works like a charm save for one problem. When I use averageif I'm forced to use an interval. Along this interval other values show up (it is always a value ranging from 0 to 2). So when the formula works its magic the results are slightly skewed because of this other value that I don't want.

So I figure there must be two ways around this. The first one would be using something like averageif that lets me use several handpicked cells instead of an interval. If I try

=averageif(N15;N29;N43;N57;N71;N85;N99;N113;N127;N141;N155;N169;N183;
N197;N211;N225;N241;N255;N269;N283;N301;N315;N329;N343;N357;"<>#DIV/0!")*100%

It doesn't work, it says I have too many values. So if I could the exact same thing as I did with averageif but keeping all of these values it'd be super nice.

The other solution, less nice but equally effective I guess, is using this same interval but having more than one criteria. The first criteria would still be the one telling it to ignore DIV/0 error, the second criteria would be the one to ignore any values equal or lower than 2.

Macro To Copy Specific Cells From Row From Source &amp; Stop When Next Row Cell = Specific Value

Nov 7, 2008

I have a protected template and unprotected source worksheets - - - what I would like to happen is for the macro to start and if the source worksheet cell B3 equals "Report Total" then stop - otherwise copy template worksheet then copy 6 specific cells from the source to paste values to specific cells on the newly created worksheet (B_ to C7, D_ to I7, E_ to C9, F_ to K9, A_ to C11, M_ to K11 and then K13=F13-30)

After that then start all over again unless the next row’s cell (B4, B5, B6, . . .) is "Report Total" then stop - - - the row count could be from one to a couple hundred.

Here is what I have so far but I know that with each copy the name will change and as it goes down the source file each row will change and I also need help with that.

Sheets("ee template").Copy After:=Sheets(3)
ActiveSheet.Unprotect
Selection.ClearContents
Range("I7").Select
Selection.ClearContents
Range("C7").Select
Sheets("source").Select
ActiveCell.Offset(0, -11).Range("A1").Select

Specific Cells Populate With Specific Numbers When A Value Within A Range Is Entered

Oct 9, 2009

Here is what i am trying to achieve. If the date 2/20/2010 is located at F53 & the cell next to it at H53 is populated with a number between 1 & 16, then i want the cell at J11 (42 rows further up) to auto populate with the number 1. When this occurs the cells beneath this, from J12 to J52 should also auto populate with the with consecutive numbers from 2 to 42. Would also like to see the cells with numbers 1 to 28, automatically format to orange & the cells containing numbers 29 to 42 automatically format to yellow. I plan to have this condition repeat several times later in the year, at dates that are to be decided. When these dates are decided i want to be able to enter a number from 1 to 16 & next to the date & all of the above automatically occurs.

Macro Loop To Extract Specific Values And Min/Max Values From Column/Rows Range

Jun 3, 2009

Hi, I'm very new to writing Excel Macro's and wanted to know if I could do the following. Conceptually, I understand what I need done and think it should be fairly straightforward.

There's 2 main events in this loop (I hope that's the correct terminology):

Input 1) User defines the beginning cell to start the loop. In this case, A2.

Input 2) User defines the range of columns/rows to display. The formula for rows that I've thought of is 4r. So if a user wants 20 rows below cells A2, they simply input 5 for r. The number of columns is a constant 5. So if r=5, then I'd want the range to be A2:E22......

Automatic Row Coloring

Nov 9, 2006

Is it possible to set a formula or something up so that if a row contains certain information, then the row will turn a certain color? For instance, if cell B2 contain the number "3" and cell B5 contains the number "5", then row B will turn yellow. Then if cell C2 contains the number "4" and cell C5 contains the number "7", row C will turn blue. This is just an example. In this example, I'd like a formula all the way down column's 2 and 5, but only the rows would change color (not columns) according to their information.

Automatically Re-Coloring

Aug 25, 2009

I have got a Pivot table with makes and their sales in 2008 and 2009 like this
2008 2009
BMW 100 90
Audi 80 80
Mercedes 200 150
Fiat 80 120
Honda 100 110
Peugeot 70 120
(unfortunatley the formatting is deleted when posting).

I have created a stack column chart.
In that chart I want certain makes to have certain colors like BMW = blue, Audi = yellow, Mercedes = black, Fiat = green, Honda = red and Peugeot = purple
When I update the Pivot with a new month and a make changes position the colors go wrong.
I would like to create a script that fixes the makers to their colors, so that after an update I can just run the script and am done .

Unfortunately I do not really know how to work with VBA (I can just steal macros and modify them a bit to my needs or use the recorder).

Chart VBA Coloring Lines

Oct 2, 2008

I have this code that colors the lines in my Line Chart

Sub ColorLines()

Application.ScreenUpdating = False

Set chrt = ActiveChart
'Here you want to put your own graph
vals = chrt.SeriesCollection(1).Values
'These are the values to determine later whether the line moves up or down. In this example, I just colored 1 seriescollection (= one line in your line graph), with an extra loop you'd do all lines.

It is very simple: When the lines goes up they turn black. When they go down they turn red.

The code work, but only if all cell in the series is filled. If one cells is blank the code error. I'm using #NA() in all cells that are blank, so the chart skip that cell and continue from the next cell's value.
