Conditionally Format Each Group Of Rows And Each Column And Color The Cell In Each Column

Nov 27, 2009

I've a worksheet that is 3750 rows of cells from A to DT and contains only numbers with the exception of a header row. The rows are in groups, primarily 4 rows, although there are exceptions - these rows are separated by blank rows. Small example as follows.

0:001:002:003:004:005:006:007:008:009:000000-296567-6-1-400000286567-300-230000715557-16-11-40-18141755226-348405-362203081417192125-893581061800-2443-11124-289326-81318-1105027854331331211318-10216-161235526785691450451115951-17-1882505656683093102671056-191-33-2710000554740971-61-78-34224107-169-128-17090179-85220-55-63-1-162-140-242-235328266319106113-214-64-148205-4108120-142076-167-60-68-6418081102-800000000000-3099695807185-80356138-123194186210677727125-23233092-2942944748055564476-422051-224-34461486649597117-84209-22-251-94

I have been trying to conditionally format each group of rows and each column and color the cell in each column of four (or less) numbers in each group that represents the maximum number.
It was easy enough to come up with the conditional formatting BUT it will take forever to do this manually. I've been told to use a macro but I know nothing of programming. Has anyone seen or heard of a macro that might already be written to perform this onerous task.

Conditionally Format Rows Based Duplicates Only Found In First Column?

Dec 6, 2013

I'm trying to conditionally format rows of data based on duplicates in the first column, then filter the results. I have a table of data with mutiple variables assigned to different "headings" that looks a little something like this:

A
B
C
D

[Code]....

[selects the table, then GoTo Special selects the blanks, fills in the blanks with the cell above, then Copy and Pastes As Values the entire table again to fill everything in]

I’m stuck on how to input a formula into the conditional formatting window that will:
Format the text to white in columns A, B, and E based on there being a duplicate above that row in Column A only. i.e. conditionally format the values with a * below:

A
B
C
D
E

[Code]....

If I use the conditional formula I found: =A1=A2, then cell E3 gets made white text when I don’t want it to, hence the “referencing column A” part of the question (Column A is always a unique ID number whereas Column E can have a duplicate in the row above). [Edit: Why can't I type Enter or put a line break here... I'll try re-edit at home...] When I go to filter on Column C for YYY again, the conditional formatting needs to realise to un-white the text, which is my next headache because it means conditional formatting that acts relative to hidden rows as a result of a filter... Oh and did I mention the client wants this done in 2003? This is an afterthought though – as I can force them to use 2010 if need be

Excel 2007 :: Conditionally Format Cell To Have The Fill Color Of Different Cell

May 25, 2011

I have a spread sheet and I want to conditionally format rows to be a certain color. That part I'm fine with. But I don't want them to be a set color. I have a "key" of different colored cells that I want to be the fill colors of the formatting. The ultimate goal is that for example the key looked like this

red
blue
yellow
green

then the rows I had would be formatted as red, blue, yellow, and green. But if you were to go into the key and change the first cell from red to purple, then the rows would become formatted as purple, blue, yellow, and green. Obviously I can copy formating by hand using the format painter, but I want it to update automatically.

Conditionally Format Column B If It Finds A Match In A

Jan 30, 2012

What is wrong with this formula? I have used it before just fine, but sometimes including now it won't work.

PRODUCT_IMAGE Images 244-447439 244-455507 244-455507 244-455508 244-455508 244-455509 244-455509 244-455512
=MATCH(B2,$A$2:$A$412,0)

We can clearly see that we have a match in rows 2 and 1 columns A and B, but I am getting #NA. I have sorted the columns A-Z as well. I have also tried formatting the columns different ways and I still get #NA.

I need to conditionally format column B if it finds a match in A.

Format Row Cell Color Based On Number Of Text Strings In A Column

Jul 29, 2013

I have been trying to format the rows on this sheet to color scale red based on the number of repeat text strings in Column E. Referring to the attached example sheet, '321/312.2/321.3' appears the most times and the goal is to color code the rows it appears in the deepest shade of red, then the next highest occurring string would shade the rows it appears in a lighter shade, etc, in descending order. Our team currently does this across multiple sheets manually everyday and it would be a real time saver if we could get excel to do this automatically.

Conditionally Hide Rows Based On 1 Column

Nov 22, 2007

I am trying to hide rows based on the contents of column BS. It the cell is empty (not just zero value, but completely empty of all formulae), then I want to leave it unhidden, then if the cell value is less than the value in cell E2 I want to hide the row. This code doesnt seem to like the first if...then next i

Sub hiderows()
Dim i As Long
Set v = cell.Value("$E$2")
' Turn off screen refresh for speed
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
' Get last row Col BS
For i = Range("BS2000").End(xlUp).Row To 15 Step -1
If IsEmpty(Cells(i)) Then Next i
ElseIf Cells.Value(i) < v Then Rows(i).Hidden = True
End If
Next i
' Turn on screen refresh
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Find A Group Of Unique Rows- Find Non-zero Value In A Column - Fill Column With That Value?

May 27, 2014

There are groups of similar ID numbers in Column J. For a group of similar ID numbers in consecutive rows there is only one row that has a number greater than 0 in its Column L cell and the rest of the cells of Column L for that set of similar IDs is filled with 0s.

First for that unique ID group I need to find out which row is it that has a value greater than zero in its Column L cell.

Then I need to use that value to fill the rest of the 0s in Column L corresponding to that set of Unique IDs.

The process continues with identifying similar IDs in Column J and this time doing the same thing for their Column M. I have attached a sample file that shows the data and how the results need to look like.

Linking Object Color To Conditionally Formatted Cell Color In Microsoft Excel

Aug 31, 2012

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.

Macro To Group Rows With Zero In Column O

Feb 12, 2014

I have about 30 worksheets in the same workbook that are identically formatted. My critical/formula data range starts in Cell A537 and ends in cell O576.

Column O is just a sum of Columns C through N.

I would like to know if I can Group (not hide) the rows that have a zero in Column O. Now with 30 worksheets, I will have some worksheets that may have 5 rows grouped and some with 20 and so forth. The numbers are not identical in the 30 sheets meaning not the same rows will be grouped in all 30 sheets.

That piece there might complicate things. Basically, a macro that looks through each worksheet and and starts grouping the rows that has a 0 in column O.

I also want to restrict my macro to the range above.

Calculate The Average Of A Group Cells In One Column Based On The Condition Of Another Column

Oct 2, 2008

I'm trying to figure out if there is a formula I could use that will calculate the average of a group cells in one column based on the condition of another column. It's hard to explain, so I will show an example. All the data is on a one worksheet and I'm trying to show totals and averages on another worksheet. Location, Days

17, 4
17, 3
17, 5
26, 4
26, 8
26, 10
26, 7

On a different worksheet I would want to know what the average days are for each location. So is there a formula that I could use that will look at column A for a specified location number and then average all the days in column B for that location? I'm using Excel 2003 and have tried using the Average(if) but with no success.

shade the rows with alternating colors so that all the data pertaining to a give ID can be easily spotted. In the example above, I would need A2:C4 to be shaded one color, A5:C5 another color, and A6:C8 the first color again.

Conditionally Format A Cell That Already Contains A Formula?

Nov 14, 2009

I wish to compare 2 sets of data in 2 cells and in the third cell i wish to both display the difference and format in a colour depending on the outcome of the difference. Is this possible? or is there another solution?

e.g cell A1 is 21
cell B1 is 26
cell C1 is the difference and if the difference is greater than say 2 then it would colour red if equal to 1 then yellow and if less than 1 as in 0 -1 etc it would colour green. I have been very successfully using conditional formatting to colour a cell that has the data inputted but cant now do it for the formula cell. The context is pupil progress but that i guess is irrelevant really.

Copy & Append To Report, Rows From Multiple Sheets If Any Cell Meets Format Color

May 1, 2008

I've seen a few threads on here about this issue but none of them do quite what I am looking for. I'd like for a single page "report" to be created when a user presses a button (which runs a macro, of course) The macro should be able to run through certain named sheets (even if hidden) and if a cell in any row is red within a sheet then the entire row or rows that meet the criteria should be copied and pasted into the Report sheet.

On the report sheet, for each sheet that has had rows that were copied, I'd like to have the name of the sheet as the header above the pasted rows so that the user knows which sheet the data came from. Any sheet that doesn't have red cells would be excluded from the report. I've attached a sample file but had to limit the number of sheets because of Orgrid's file size limit. Hopefully, you'll see what I am getting at here.

Conditionally Format Currency Based On Another Cell?

Feb 28, 2014

What I am trying to do is create a multi-currency expense report. For example, cell B1 has a drop down list of three different currencies. Based on the currency selected in B1, I want C1 to reflect that number formatting using the proper currency.

Im sure there is an easy way to do this but I have tried using an if statement in the conditional formatting section but it does not work.

how to total the different currencies using the ifsum formula, so this is more of a presentation task, but still it has annoyed me to no end.

In the example workbook, the currency value selected in row E should effect the currency formatting in Rows F-L

Conditionally Format First Cell Based On Values In The Row

Apr 29, 2009

i've been trying for teh last two days to figuire out a way to conditionally format the first cell in a row to turn a certain color based on the values of several independant cells in that row, as opposed to monitoring the whole row. I have tried numerous IF, AND, OR, formulas to no avail. The cell obviously also needs to ignore blank cells...Can this be done?

Basically I want the first cell to turn yellow if dates in certain cells are within 90 days of today, and turn red if within 30 days of today.......

Automatically Color Fill Rows Based On Changing Column Information

Jun 24, 2009

I would like to automatically color fill a series of rows based on like information from a single column. When the information in the column changes then the rows would either stop filling (this would be best) or fill with a different color until the information changes again.

Summary: series of alternating rows would either be filled or unfilled based on changes from the column information.

Hope this isn't too confusing. Below is an example except I would want the cells filled, not the text or numbers to change. The highlight is changing based on the changing of the numbers.

ABCD 12345
ABD 12345
ABCD 12349
ABDF 12349
ABCD 12358
ABF 12358

Format All Rows Where 1 Column Meets Condition

Jan 21, 2008

I'm trying to Multi-Select rows in order to format all rows, in "One Step" if the cell in col. "A" = 1. I managed to write the hereunder code but I'm still frastrating because I don't like the first RNG setting command. How can I avoid declaring RNG as row(1) and still be able to run the code. I assume I need some other Range set for RNG which, unfortunately, I could'nt find and the command I used includes row1 in RNG although cell A1 = 5.

Sub Conditional_Multi_Rows_Select()
Set RNG = Rows(1) ' this is my problem
LR = [A65536].End(xlUp).Row
For R = 1 To LR
If Cells(R, 1) = 1 Then
Cells(R, 1).EntireRow.Select
Set RNG = Union(RNG, Selection)
End If
Next
RNG.Select
Selection.Font.Bold = True
Selection.Font.ColorIndex = 3
End Sub

I had in mind to use:

Set RNG = Rows(65536)
but this will not make it a "neat" vba code, either.

Conditionally Change Number Format Based On Another Cell's Value

Dec 1, 2009

Format the number in Column AL to '[hh]:mm' when Column C's value is ="P/T", otherwise format to 'General'

Column C's value is referenced from another sheet in the same workbook via a VLOOKUP function.

Column AL's value is based on an IF formula which goes like this:
=IF($C4="F/T",SUM($AJ4)+($AK4/2),SUM($D4:$AH4))

Basically the above formula asks if Column C's value is F/T then count (because if F/T then the corresponding values in that row are whole numbers). If not, then SUM (because if P/T the corresponding values in that row are set to [hh]:mm format).

I have another sheet in the same workbook which has code (quoted below) which does something similar but I don't understand it enough to get it doing what I want for the sheet in question.

Conditionally Format Cell Using Absolute Values And Relative Cell References?

Below is my code which isn't formatting the cells it's suppossed to. It looks like it isn't doing anything. I think the issue might be with the highlighted section of my code, but when I go to "Manage" my rules for conditional formatting, excel references the appropriate cell under the "Applies to" section. I am using relative cell references for for the majority of the rest of the code and this section follows a section that selects the correct cell for this conditional format.

Code:
Selection.FormatConditions.Add Type:=xlExpression, Formula1:="=""ABS()>.005"""
Selection.FormatConditions(Selection.FormatConditions.Count).SetFirstPriority[code].....

When the value of a cell in row R is larger than its adjacent cell (R25:M25) in row M, I would like the font to turn red. When the value is smaller, I would like the font to turn green.

With the amount of time I've spent attempting to conditionally format, I could have gone through and formatted each cell individually by now!

If A23 = "Please See DME", then unprotect (pw=richie13) and unlock D23, then protect (pw=richie13) sheet again
If A24 = "Please See DME", then unprotect (pw=richie13) and unlock D24, then protect (pw=richie13) sheet again
If A25 = "Please See DME", then unprotect (pw=richie13) and unlock D25, then protect (pw=richie13) sheet again

and so on and so on.
