I have a list that, how do i create a border that data contains formula (formula not display/blank)...
i want to create dynamic border with condition if data display/showing must be border shown too...
for this, i want to line "TOTAL" in column AD expands up, based on data display/showing...
note : in cell AF2 as parameter/controller to show data by month (type 2 instead February or 3 --March etc...)
how to make conditional formatting for border line (top & bottom) after repeat 5 data/text ....
it's possible with CF formula and do not vba?
see my excel file attached..
Border thickness limitations with conditional formatting.
I have a sheet that is formatted to fit on an A4 sheet. The text sizes are all defined to make it easy to read. I have two predefined border sizes on the sheet.
Thick for major section division
Thin for sections within the major section
The border color is Red regardless of thickness
There are cells that do not have borders
I have a need to change all existing border colors to Green when a cell has a particular value in it.
When I use conditional formatting, I only want to change the color not anything else but it always changes the existing thick lines to thin. This completely mucks up the layout because the row height and column width changes when the thick borders are changed to thin.
Is there any way at all to create a rule, or formula, or anything, that only changes the existing border color and nothing else?
I'm trying to use conditional formatting to colour the border of a range of cells when another cell has data in it.
I can get it to color all the cells borders within that range when there's data in that cell but I just want the outside of the entire range.
Possible to create a macro that would detect end page (jumping from page 1 to page 2 for instance) and add a bottom border at the last row of the page.
I have attached a sample where I highlight in green the end of the page and added manually the bottom border (I did it only for the first end pages).

I'm trying to conditional format a cell that contains a formula that when the formula returns anything other than "" the cell contains a border.
My formula within the cell is referencing another worksheet
=IF(Sheet1!A1="","",Sheet1!A1)
Ideally the formula within the conditional format would be
=NOT(ISBLANK(Sheet1!$A$1))
but it isn't possible to reference another worksheet within a conditional format.
Have 2 conditional formattings going on in a database query and need to apply two more conditions but only have 1 conditional formatting left. I am trying to highlight everything in a row that contains either "HCAT" or "HCAL" in column D. So far I have this,
=$D2=OR(HCAT,HCAL)
but its not highlighting anything, any clues?
I simply need to have column A be red if value is < Column B value and green if it is >. The problem is that if the value in column A is .00000004 and column B is .00000005, it turns red. Example is the first three numbers below the headers....they each are 0%, yet the value on the left turns red because it is .0000005 more than the value on the right. I just want the colors to reflect the numbers which show up as below. Is there a way to do this?
2011 % of PDD
2011 % of Total $
0%
0%

1. I have a range of random numbers within a column, i.e. A1:A9
2. A specific number will appear in a cell at the end of that column, i.e. A11
3. I need to see via conditional formatting which of the above cells add up to that number.
I am aware that given the numbers in A1:A9, it is possible to have more than one combination of numbers that add up to A11. I would need to see those combinations as well identified using Conditional formatting.
I am referencing a cell in order to change the background color of a row of cells if the number in column B is = to the number in a specific cell. The formula used in the conditional formatting is =$B73=$B$10. The reference cell $B$10 contains the following formula =INT(MAX('Assumptions & Inputs'! F8:F9))
The conditional formatting worked fine when I used that formula. I had to change the formula in cell $B$10 so that it would meet a new criteria. When I did that the conditional formatting would not change the color of the row. The new formula that I put in the reference cell $B$10 is
='Assumptions & Inputs'!$D$8+MAX('Assumptions & Inputs'!$F$8-'Assumptions & Inputs'!$D$8,'Assumptions & Inputs'!$F$9-'Assumptions & Inputs'!$D$9)
I am now trying this using Conditional Formatting in Excell 2000; so limited to 3 conditions. However I cannot get it work with multiple conditions:-
Values;-
A34 = Heritage Rly Assn Business Development Committee
A35 = North London Rly Historical Society
C34 = 23/09/2009 (formatted as WEEKDAY DD MMM YYYY)
D34 = 23/09/2009 13:30 (formatted as HH:MM)
In Cell C34
Format condition 1:-
=A34<>A35 , Format Bottom Border
Format condition 2:-
=AND(WEEKDAY(C34)>1,WEEKDAY(C34)<7,HOUR(D34)<18,A34<>A35), Format Bottom Border and Yellow pattern
Format condition 3:-
=AND(WEEKDAY(C34)>1,WEEKDAY(C34)<7,HOUR(D34)<18), FormatYellow pattern
In cell c34 Format condition 1 activates NOT condition 2.
In another cell, C13, condition 3 correctly operates; in this row A13 = A14. Condition 1 works i.e. the cells A1 and A2 are the same only cell A2 has the bottom border and if Cell A2 and A3 are different there is a bottom border in both cells. There must be something wrong with my formula in condition 2 but I can't see what; condition 2 is just condition 1 amd 3 amalgamated.
The condition 2 should read:
If the date is not a Saturday or Sunday in cell C34 and the time is before 18:00 hours in Cell D34 and the name in the "a" cell i.e. A34 does not equal the name in the "a" cell below this one i.e. A35 put in a bottom border and colour the cell yellow.
I came across an issue on the pivot table after refreshing data. I always need to manually redo the border and formatting. I figure that it is because every time when some new group have move to another day, it change the pivot table layout again and so on.
1) I manage to draw border for Day 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 but 'Beyond Day 5' i dont know how to do it.
2) Sometime some Day X will have no data then i will have problem with my script. (example pivot table doesnt show Day 2)
3) Possible to do looping for that?
I had attached a simple file.
I have a challenge with conditional formatting. I have products A-K with sales current year and last year and want to have year on year growth. I want to have one column where the cell formatting changes based on data validation.
Let's say product A sold 60 items CY and 50 LY meaning YoY variance is +10 items or +20%. Hence, if the relevant cell says "%" then the YoY figure should say "+20%" (formatted as a percentage) and if "VALUES" then YoY should be 10 (formatted as numbers/absolute values).
Remember also that YoY growth can be +100% (or more), 0% and -100%.
I am trying to use conditional formatting for a cell; It is a cell using Validation; you can choose "Yes" or "No" from a list If the value is "Yes" the cell should be green, regardless of everything else But if the value is "No" it should turn red, but only if a choice in another cell is equal to "X". Otherwise it should be left without special formatting.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am having a very difficult time trying to figure out a conditional formatting formula for something that seems very simple. There are 3 conditions I would like to apply to cell B2: If the value of I2 is less than or equal to 24, but greater than or equal to 21, shade B2 red. If the value of I2 is less than or equal to 20, but greater than or equal to 12, shade B2 orange. If the value of I2 is less than or equal to 11, but greater than or equal to 8, shade B2 yellow. I am sure I am missing something quite simple here.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a formula in the Conditional Formatting wizard.
I would like the formula to format B2:F2 in a particular way if a count of the number of values in this range equals 5 AND if all values are less than or equal to 25.
I have tried with following formula without success:
=IF(AND(COUNT(B2:F2)=5),COUNTIF(B2:F2,”<=25”)=5),””))
This is the most simplest conditional formatting which is working except on some cells. I want to compare two columns cells ex : if A=B , then format A as green.
Its working, the "formula" and "cell value contains" everything except for few cells. Cell B has formula's in it related to other cells. When i enter values in other cells, Cell B computes but A refuses to format "green".
If I just enter same value[ex 1, 1]in both the cells sans formula ,it highlights A green . I want to know , if the formula in cell B is causing the errors in formatting and if it is
I have a grading system for university students, my spreadsheet looks like this:
Student Name Academic Calendar GPA Fall GPA Winter GPA Spring GPA Summer
John Quarter 3.00 2.56 2.89 3.6
Jane Semester 3.1 n/a 3.21 3.7
I think I will need to do some conditional formatting to make it easy to fill the student GPAs .
I was thinking how to enter a formula to have the GPA winter appear as shaded when I enter "semester" in the Academic Calendar column.

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy attached spreadsheet is for tracking when certain tasks were completed on each case and figuring the number of days that it takes to complete these tasks.
The task I am needing help in formatting is the Corrections Received field (column E). We need to track the cases that do not have corrections received within 7 days of the changes being requested (Out for Corrections, column D). The issue is that there would not usually be a date entered in the Corrections Received column when we need to look at those cases...because they would not be received yet. In order to not get an extreme default value (like the -40181 or 40922), I entered the =Now() function in column E (except for first case as an example of what this would look like otherwise).
What I was hoping to be able to do is use conditional formatting to look for that Now() formula. If the formula is present, the cell would be highlighted. If a date were entered, even if it was today's date, the fill on that cell would be removed. That way we could tell when the displayed date is a true date and when it is a placeholder until we receive the information.
Currently, it either highlights no matter what the cell includes or it doesn't highlight anything...
My VBA code should post the formula "=IF($B6=""Store URL"",TRUE,FALSE)" into the conditional formatting formula box but everytime it pastes something different, such as "=IF($B11="Store URL",TRUE,FALSE)"

(1) I have conditional formatting working to format cells that contain a formula.
(2) I need to also separately conditional format cells which link to a formula in an external worksheet.
I don't wish to use VBA and would like to use defined name range method outlined below.
To do (1) above:
Under define name range, created "cellhasformula", the formula used in the field refers to was: =get.cell(48,indirect("rc",false))
In conditional formatting using: format values where this formula is true. =cellhasformula (works great).
These formulas in their current form, do not work in defining name range:
=InStr(1, c.Formula, ".xls") > 0
or eg =InStr(1,rCell.Formula,"[")>0
exact formula to use in define name range to return a true value if a formula is linked to an external worksheet?
I have a cell that has a conditional formatting of Cell Value< 90 the cell value is based off a formula which is
=LEFT(E48,LEN(E48)-1)
which when it comes out to me less then 90 I need it to color red. But it does not is there something that I need in the conditional formatting to tell that its a number?
I have two columns:
Column "D" is a date field
Column "E" is a number field
I would like to Conditional Format the Dates in Column "D" to have a color fill:
If the value in column "E" is >99 and the Date in Column "D" is over 42 days before TODAY
=AND($E$3>99, $D$3
For some reason the end of teh formula will not display:
I know it can be done cause I've used it before but I can't seem to make it work this time. I want to use the conditional formatting to compare two ranges of cells within one worksheet I know it's something like =match(A2:C12) the two ranges are sitting one on top of the other. . .
View 4 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to have the conditional format auto adjust the cell value range (similar to how the drop and drag with the autocomplete cell values turned on works)?
For example:
If I conditional format: A1 - does not equal A2 then change colour to blue. Then use the Format Paint to copy the A1 conditional format to B1. Is there any way that it can auto adjust the cell reference to change to - does not equal B2 (the next cell down and so on) rather than having to manually go to each cell and adjust the cell reference?
Ultimately I want the following to happen:
A1 - does not equal A2 (colour blue)
B1 - does not equal B2 (colour blue)
C1 - does not equal C2 (colour blue) etc
I have used Excel for a number of years and have gotten on ok on my own working out simple formulas myself but I have been stuck on this one for a while. Is it possible to enter a value into a cell and have a predefined formula that works with the data that I enter?? I would like to enter a value between 1-10 and the cell then takes this number and multiplies it by a value in another cell. Eg.
I have a cell that displays £10 (let's say D6)
In another cell I enter 8
I would then like the cell to do the formula =8*D6 automatically, as this value can be different each time (1-10)
