I am needing to format a spreadsheet using 2003 which only allows 3 conditional formats, but I have 4 conditions.
I need to highlight the row if column W has a
G - green (colorindex = 35)
R - red (colorindex = 3)
Y - yellow (colorindex = 36)
O - orange (colorindex = 44)
how I can do this?
We have 6 words we need to add to a sheet, each cell needs to be a different colour on the basis of the word.
I was hoping to use CF as the sheet needs to be locked against people editng cells and the like.
My question is, could a conditional format say if "service" colour blue, if "parc" colour green.
If this is possible this would allow me to use 6 different colours.
I have used Formula to ID cells containing a formula to flag cells red with conditional formatting in a list that do not have formula.
I need a single cell to change colour if any of the cells in the list do not have a formula. e.g. the subtotal in the top row could go red so the user can scroll down to find individual red cells.
Is there a way to count the red cells without formula in the list - Conditionally formatted cells are hard to count. I don't want to use a vba script to do it as the user probably won't run it and auto run slow calculations down.
Is there an array formula that can return true or false if not(CellHasFormula) is true anywhere in the list?
countif(AH1:AH2976,CellHasFormula) doesn't work.
A1:A6 have numeric values 1 to 6.
I want the conditional format values to change Based on the value in Cell B2.
If the value in B2 is "old", then I want these conditional format conditions for A1:A6. Numbers between 1-2=green text, 3-4=orange text and 5-6=red text.
IF the value in B2 is "new" then I want the conditional format conditions in A1:A6 to change so 1=black text, 2-3=green text, 4-5=orange text and 6=red text.
I know how to do multiple conditional formats but i have no clue how to change multiple conditions based on another cells value.
I have a conditonal format of cells across Row 2 based on the contents of cell D2. The formula for the conditional format is
=$D$2="NONE"
The formatting applies to these cells:
=$F$2:$G$2,$I$2:$K$2,$M$2:$N$2,$O$2,$T$2:$V$2,$X$2:$AA$2
I would like to fill in the same conditional format down to 51 other rows but the formatting for each row should be based on the contents of its own cell i.e. $D$3, $D$4, $D$5 etc. How can I do this with code?
I have a report with over 12,000 rows of info.
I have set conditional formatting to highlight yellow if the rows contain a certain word.
I need to delete all the non-highlighted rows.
Is it possible to alternate how a condition works over many rows? Say column C has work order numbers eg. C2:C7 shows WO1234, C8:C15 shows WO1235, C16:C25 shows WO1236 and C26:C30 shows WO1237. What I would like to do is have rows 2:7 red, rows 8:15 blue, row 16:25 red, rows 26:30 blue and repeat to end (the range would be column A to column N. Ive used =MOD(ROW(),2) for every second row but am not sure how to get it to look at many rows and alternate as needed.

and I've found the code I need on the site

I've changed it to suit my needs
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim icolor As Integer
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A1:A2000")) Is Nothing Then
Select Case Target
Case Is = "Test"
icolor = 6
Case Is = "Test2"
icolor = 12
Case Is = "Test3"
icolor = 7
Case Is = "Test4"
icolor = 53
Case Is = "Test5"
icolor = 15
Case Is = "Test6"
icolor = 42
Case Else
End Select
Target.Interior.ColorIndex = icolor
End If
End Sub
This works great for one cell, but I need to format a row range based on the single cell.
So if Test is entered into A1, then it changes to yellow, I also need the next 6 cells on the row to change too- In this case [B1:G1].
But it needs to cover the range in the code A1:A2000
I have a list of 50 sites (in rows) and their revenue for the last 12 months (in columns). I would like to use conditional format to highlight the highest number in each row but I can only do this one row at a time using top/bottom rules (top 1%). Is there a formula that I can use to do all the rows at once instead of one at a time?
View 9 Replies View RelatedWhat I am looking to do is format a row so that it is highlighted if one cell in that row meets one of two criteria or if another cell in that row meets one of two criteria: I was hoping to use the excel conditional formating tool but I'm stumped as I need 4 criteria and it can only do 3 criteria.
The cells in question require a greater than or less than criteria. If could use something like: Formular is =$AJ16 <= -0.11 or =$AJ16 >= 0.11 and
Formular is =$AK16 <= -0.11 or =$AK16 >= 0.11 I would be very happy but it won't let me do this - is there a way it can be done?
I've got a pivot table that shows different activities their cost, budget and percentage complete amongst other things. I would like to use conditional formatting to turn the font of a whole row grey if that activity is a 100% complete (exactly more then 99,5% complete in this case). I can do this with conditional formatting by selecting the individual rows and then setting the conditions. Example: selected row =$45:$45, Formatting condition =$J$45>99,5%.
However I've got 1500 rows to do....how can I set this condition for all rows in one go?
I would like to highlight cells is two conditions are met:Cell = 0Offset(0,-1)>0I tried the conditional format wizard and entered a formula: =IF(AND($J2=0,$I2>0)) But I keep receiving formual errors, which I understand, because it appears to be incomplete formula. But I am not sure what else I need to add to the formula in the conditional format wizard
View 2 Replies View Relateddo a conditional format rule that will highlight every other row of my excel spreadsheet when the value in a specific Column (say Column A) differs than the previous.
I've attached a sample worksheet with what I want it to look like after the conditional format rule is applied (every other row highlighted in light blue). The rule needs to apply to all rows in the worksheet beginning with ROW 2 (I don't need the rule to apply to the column header which is in ROW 1).
(Core starting issue solved but other threads were created to continue with trouble spots.)
I'm terrified to use VBA just yet, so right now I'm determined to highlight values in my spreadsheet just using conditional formatting.
I have 5 plus 1 columns of data. For example,
A B C D E....F
3 2 4 5 7....2
4 6 1 3 4....1
4 7 4 5 8....4
2 1 5 3 9....1
I successfully applied a MIN formula to compare between columns on each
row and display in F the MIN value. Notice each cell going down F has the
minimum value in analyzing across each row.
Now, I *also* want to apply a formula on the whole F column to compare these resultant MIN values
and give me the MINIMUM value between those as well, so now I'm comparing across
rows. Got it? Now then.....I want the ENTIRE row that has this MIN value in F to be highlighted, because that will be the best choice for the application of what I'm doing. Did you understand this paragraph. It might have been confusing, but I think I said everything correctly, so read it carefully.
I've tried all sorts of "Formula is", "Cell value is", dollar sign this, dollar sign that, no dollar sign this, <, >, =, highlighted ALL the block of data, highlighting JUST the column across the rows of which will be compared, only highlighted one cell, but nothing has worked.
Is my problem that you can't have 2 formulas in one cell? So then I thought I should ADD another condition, but nothing works.
Let me throw in one more element that I did not state. If anywhere down the F column there is a 0, I don't want that to be my minimum. I want it to evaluate and give me the minimum value greater than 0.
Please read everything I wrote carefully. It might be confusing, but I hope someone has an answer, because it sure has frustrated me.
Now, I'm thinking that VBA programming may give me answers, but I am so terrified of macros, I don't know how to begin that. I have this impression based on the many sites I've looked at on the internet that many people do macros and it's quite easy, but it's funny to me that I am so scared. There's something about me freaking out that I won't have a period or a quote in the right place and I'll stress my day away over it.
I´m having aproblem with Excel 2007 about Conditional Formatting. I have a row of Dates for example 02-01-2009 03-01-2009 04-01-2009 , etc in different columns.
Then what I want to do is use Conditional Formatting to Format cells on several rows below according to the day (if its weekend paint red, if not, dont do anything). I'm using the "Use a formula to determine which cells to format" and the condition is (supposing the cells with dates are A1 to C1)
=WEEKDAY(A1:C1) > 5 .
So with those 3 dates provided lets suppose Januar2nd is not a weekday, so the outputIwant is: Red White White, (Next Row) Red White White, etc for several rows.
Now what I think is not right is it only works for the row in which I have the cursor so its like: (Lets imagine I selected 3 rows on which I want to see that output) Red White White (The row in which the cursor is works fine), but the next row goes Red Red Red and the third the same.
i have the following formula applied to a conditional format, on row 12:
cell value > less than =($K12:Y$111)*(1-0.05)
i want to use this on all rows, however i have 300+ rows.
Is there a way to apply this to all rows between column K and Y, i don't like the thought of creating 300+ conditional formats!

4. If column J= "Open"
5. the select Celss from column B to J in that row and colour these cells in grey
4. Repeat for next row until you get to cell in column B where there is no data.

Note: I've managed to do it for one cell ie for Column B by replacing "If Range("J" & i).Value = "Closed" Then Range("B", "J" & i).Select with "If Range("J" & i).Value = "Closed" Then Range("B" & i).Select" This works but only colours in cell in column B, how do i do this so it colours range of cells
I have a Sheet ( Named "Summary" for Example ) of about 4,000 Rows that has a LOT of Conditional Formatting.
I Added Another 100 Rows this Morning and when I Tried Saving it a Message Saying that Not All the Formatting for the New Data that had Been Added had Been Saved. Is there a Macro or Something I can Run that will Make the Conditionally Formatted Cells Stay the Colour that they are but Delete the Conditional Formatting Part of it Achieved Using "Format" & "Conditional Format" from the Menu Please.
Ideally I would like to be Able to Enter the Number of Rows ( From Row ? to Row ? ) that I want this to Apply to.
I have five fields that have a conditional format applied to them: (see attached).
Columns J, K, L, N and O. These conditionals highlight if a minimum number is entered. Ex. Minimum pushups for a 30 y/o male is 27, if a 26 is entered it highlights red. The total score (where I need this to perform) is calculated in column Q. It will format red if the total score is below 75 but what I can't figure out is how to make it format if any of the previous minimums have not been met.
Ex. In cell L4, his crunches were 25 (a automatic failure -- red formatting). Now the total score is above 75 so it calculates as passing (green), but I need it to highlight red regardless because of the minimum not met in cell L4.
I have a range which has conditional formats based on other cells. I want to copy this range into another sheet and retain the current formats as fixed formats without copying the conditional formulae. ideally in VBA.
View 5 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to change the format of cell AI3 based on the format of cell C3 and D3? I have C3 and D3 set to turn red based on what is in cell C2 and D2. I would like the following done:
If AI3=C3 & C3 is red, format AI3 blue
If AI3=D3 & D3 is red, format AI3 blue
Otherwise, leave AI3 unformatted.
Possible???
Problem: Placing a With/End With for FormatConditions in a For/Next loop isn't applying the conditional formatting.
Information:
- I have a stats section that has months as the column headers with totals at the end (used as a VLOOKUP table)
- Each column needs the conditional formatting separately
- The columns are static, but the rows are variable
- Taking it out of the loop and coding each loop individually works perfectly
The problem code:
finalRowTable = Cells(Rows.Count, 12).End(xlUp).Row
For i = 13 To 38
With Range(i & "11:" & i & finalRowTable)
.FormatConditions.Delete
.FormatConditions.AddTop10
.FormatConditions(1).TopBottom = xlTop10Top
.FormatConditions(1).Rank = 1
.FormatConditions(1).Percent = False
.FormatConditions(1).Interior.Color = 5296274
End With
Next i
I checked after running it and it doesn't show up in the Manage Rules Conditional Formatting
Code that works without loop:
Code:
With Range("N11:N" & finalRowTable)
.FormatConditions.Delete
.FormatConditions.AddTop10
.FormatConditions(1).TopBottom = xlTop10Top
.FormatConditions(1).Rank = 1
.FormatConditions(1).Percent = False
.FormatConditions(1).Interior.Color = 5296274
End With
I've been playing with excel VBA for a few months now, so it's probably something simple.
I have a Macro that when run checks for the lowest value in a line & highlights that line. It works just as it should, infact it works better than I had planded. When I update a cell value and move to the next cell it changes the highlight.
Option Explicit
Sub SELECT_LOW_PRICE()
Range("a4:i126").Select
Selection.FormatConditions.Delete
Selection.FormatConditions.Add Type:=xlExpression, _
Formula1:="=and(a4=min($a4:$i4),not(isblank(a4)))"
Selection.FormatConditions(1).Interior.ColorIndex = 6
Cells(1, 1) = "Updated " & Now
Cells(1, 1).Select
End Sub
In the attached spreadsheet, the numbers in col A derived from another spreadsheet. The table D1:L21 is precaculated based on projection. I need 2 cells highlighted when they capture the number from the same row (col A). In another word, whenever the number from col A fall in between the 2 cells in the same row, they will be highlighted. Another condition is when it is smaller then 10 reps, the corresding cell in col D will be highlighted, as demonstrated in the attached table. I tried AND(E2<A2, F2>A2) but it didn't work. I also tried LARGE((E2:L2<A2)*(E2:L2),1) and similar SMALL function. They work as an array in normal excel, but not in the conditional formatting.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am trying to fill a cell green if the current value > avg value and in red if < than avg value. I have tried to use conditional formatting but I cannot see where i can add additional rules. In any case here is what I am trying to do:
Daily Avg. Units:42
Avg Bgt. Units:7
The cell containing the number 42 is filled in green. If the figure was less than 7 it would have been red.
Why is there a hard limitation like this? Is there a way to go around it? By having a different format for the cells outside the 3 conditions I can get 4 different formats altogether, but that's not really that much.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI'm using Excel 2000 which has a limit of three conditions, I have 6. If you could just get me started, I still don't understand VBA enough to do this.
In cell A1, the color is set to red. I want A1 to turn green when all 6 conditions are met:
1. Cell B1 has a valid value from its pull down list, no other value, and not empty.
2. Cell B2 has an integer, no decimal places allowed, and not empty.
3. Cell B3 has a valid value from its pull down list, no other value, and not empty
4. Cell B4 is not empty.
5. Cell B5 has a three decimal place number greater than zero.
6. Cell B6 has a single letter from A-Z only.

I am using a drop down list in excel and want to conditional format the cells based on what is selected from the list. I can't use conditional formatting as I have more than 3 items in the list.
I am guessing VBA can help but am a complete novice so could use some handholding on what to do.
Idea is that if someone select "Good" from dropdown, cell becomes green, "Stable" is amber and so on.
