Images Displayed Via Cell Reference Or Conditional Formatting?

Aug 28, 2009

I have a bunch of images which I want to be able to display in different cells depending on certain values or conditions. Say for example you have a drop down box with a list of fruits. When you pick a fruit, it displays its picture. Is this possible? If all of the pictures exist somewhere on the sheet, can you reference the pictures to have them appear in a cell rather than having images always "floating" over the sheet?

Reference Cells One To One In Conditional Formatting?

Jul 24, 2014

I'm using conditional formatting where one column of cells is referencing another column of cells. For example, I want cell K2 to highlight if the date entered doesn't match the date in F2. I then want cell K3 to highlight if the date entered doesn't match the date in F3. I want cell K4 to highlight if the date entered doesn't match the date in F4 and so on. I'm not having any issue putting conditional formatting on the cells/row references individually, but when I try to copy the formatting (by using format painter) to save time all of the cells in column K just reference the first cell in column F since the first cell in column K references that F cell but not any other F cell. How do I copy these row by row references between columns so that each reference is unique?

Conditional Formatting With Reference To Different Cells

Dec 21, 2008

As shown in the image given below, I have 2 tables. In Image 1, Vacation details are being fetched from a different worksheets. There can be 13 possible values in a particular cell. These 13 entries are,

V
SL
CO
T
PH
W
ML
PL
AD
BE
CTW
EM
LOP
MAR
OTR

Excel Jeanie HTMLSheet2 *BCDEFGHIJKLMNOP2Feb-09*Feb-093MonTueWedThuFriSatSun*MonTueWedThuFriSatSun4**************15VSLCOTPH***23456786WMLPLADBE***91011121314157EMLOPMAROTR****161718192021228CTW*******232425262728*9*************** Excel tables to the web >> Excel Jeanie HTML 4

WHAT I NEED :

If the value in cell B5 is V then J5 is being colored with PINK background. Similarly if any cell in Image 1 has value SL ( for e.g. C5 ) then K5 is being colored with orange. Similarly there should be 13 different types of color coding for all the above values which I mentioned.

WHY I NEED THIS ?

As you can see in Image 1, If I apply these colors to Table 1 only, then the user will not be able to see the value V or SL or any values belong to which date ?

Note - I am doing this for the whole year. But if someone can send me VBA code then I can do it for the rest.

Conditional Formatting With Reference To The Whole Column

Jun 29, 2006

I have made a sample file with conditional formatting. The file contains 3 sheets which contain a number of orders. Conditional formatting is changing colour of the whole line depending on value in column C. The formatting contains reference to a certain cell in column C. It is very easy to make when the lists are so short: I make conditional formatting for line 2 with reference to cell C2, copy formats in the other 2 lines and change formula references to C3 and C4. However in the original spreadsheet there might be more than 5000 lines per sheet and it will be too time consuming to correct the formulas manually. Does anyone know how I can make a reference to column C without specifying each particular cell?

VBA Conditional Formatting That Works With Reference To Another Worksheet

Sep 11, 2009

I need to create conditional formatting on a worksheet where I need to change the cell colour based on 6 cases.

The VBA that I have found does not work with referenced cells to another worksheet in the workbook which I need as all the data is referenced with calculations.

I also need to specify the cells that the VBA will apply to as I need to apply 6 or 7 different different sets of conditional formatting on the same worksheet to different groups of cells.

Conditional Formatting: Reference Changes Adding/Deleting Rows/Columns Or Cells

Sep 26, 2006

I'm using Conditional Formatting for an entire column to check the value of each cell and compare it to the value of a cell in the same row but a different column. (Cell Value equals =$D2) It works great until I insert or delete a cell in the formatted column. The reference does not change as one would expect. I've played around with formulae such as =$D2<>$P2 but the reference only changes for the P2, not the D2. I've also tried using =CELL("contents", ADDRESS(Row(),4)) but this causes excel to complain.

Conditional Multiple Column Unlock Via Cell Reference?

Aug 2, 2013

I have an inventory log that requires multiple cells in different columns to be unlocked based on a reference cell's input.

So, if a cell in column E has "MORNING" entered then cells L/M/N are unlocked and said user can input data for that row, and only that row. If anything else is in E, then L/M/N are left locked.

Is there a way to do this without coding, just using regular IF() in the cell directly; IF(ISTEXT(E3)=MORNING, Unlock, KeepLock)? I know that's nowhere close to being a legitimate statement, but it's the best way I can translate my thoughts.

Conditional Formatting With Empty Cell

Jul 8, 2009

I want to use conditional formatting on a column ('A') to highlight cells that do not have a match with any cells in a specific range.

So I've made a range called 'AcceptedData', which contains a couple of cells with text.
Also included a blank cell in the range, since I do not want blank cells to be highlighted.

Then I used this conditional format forumla on column A.

=COUNTIF(AcceptedData;A1)=0

But it doesn't seem to work. The blank cells get highlighted.

Conditional Formatting Only Top Line Of Cell

Feb 1, 2010

I have a worksheet with conditional formatting applied. My formula works to change the cell color, font color, and strike-through the font if a "yes" answer is indicated. It all works well EXCEPT that the font color and strike-through ONLY apply to the top line on my cell.

Each cell has a title line, and a few paragraphs in it, with separations between the title line and the paragraphs. I kind of like having the title line a different font, but when it's time to strikethrough I want ALL of the text struck through.

I want to create a conditional formatting based on a cell in a row. If the value of that cell is greater than or equal to $20 the entire row would be highlighted with a color.

the main thing is that the cells in the rows have if formulas that supple the data for the cells. The cells will be blank if nothing is to be displayed but they will still contain the formula.

Conditional Formatting (highlight A Cell)

Feb 22, 2010

I am working on a spreadsheet in Excel 2007 and i am trying to use a formula in the conditional formatting that will highlight a cell if the date is prior to today's date and the next column over is no. the formula i am using right now is =IF(F2>TODAY(),IF(G2="NO",TRUE,)). the problem i am having is that it is highlighting all cells that have a date and the next column over is no.

i can't figure out how to get it to do an if this, then that function correctly. one other thing that could potentially be causing my problem is that the cells.
I am trying to have highlight are calculated themselves based on a formula. see the attached spreadsheet for information.

Conditional Formatting Based On Value Of Another Cell

Jun 4, 2012

I want to format a cell conditional on the value of another cell. I have read numerous threads on the topic and no matter what I do, it doesn't seem to work for me. I've made it a simple as possible by creating a new workbook and entering:

A1: 5
B1: 2
C1: Some random text - this cell has the conditional formula: ="A1>B1"

However, the cell doesn't get formatted. Here is a screenshot and here is the simple workbook.

Conditional Formatting Value Change Of Same Cell

Apr 22, 2013

I have a spreadsheet of stock data open, high, low, close etc., that streams in real time from thompson reuters. i am trying to conditionally format the G column which is the "(HIGH)" price of the day to alert me when the value of that cell changes price. Basically during the first 15 min of trading my software filters down the top performing stocks of the day. During that time i drag and drop the information in the excel program that is linked to the stock quotes program which might give me up to 30 or 40 stocks. The conditional formatting is to alert me after the 15 min mark if the "(HIGH)" value in that column has changed price to a new high. I can control the stream of the data with a button that turns off the data stream so that it only goes live after 15 min.
