In Excel 2007, is there a way to copy a conditional format from one cell to a range of cells. My conditional format is comparing the value of one cell say A1 to B1, and formatting the cell if the value is different. How do I copy this format to also compare A2 to B2, and C2 to D2 etc.
View 2 RepliesI am trying to apply conditional formatting to the range K60:R82 based on their corresponding cell in the range K87:R109 (the arrays have the same size). If each cell in the first range is greater than their corresponding cell in the 2nd range, then the cell in the first range should be formatted with pink fill and red text.
View 2 Replies View RelatedAny way write a conditional format formula to shade a cell based on two ranges.
Here is what I need:
cell b4 should be colored in if n4:xfd4 = today's date AND n3:xfd3 = "Time Off". The part I am having trouble with is that it should only shade if today and time off are in the same column.
Here is an example:
This one should shade B4(note: Today is 08/13/2013):
time off
late
08/13/2013
08/10/2013
This one should not:
late
time off
08/13/2013
08/10/2013
This is what I came up with so far, but it shades the cell if either show up in the entire range:
=AND(MATCH($G$1,$n$4:$XFD$4),MATCH($H$1,$n$3:$XFD$3),1)
Note: g1 contains =today() and h1 = "Time off"
So formula is wrong.
i edited this thread becuase I realized why I was getting the wrong results, however, I am completely clueless on how I need to accomplish the task below.
I need to apply formatting based on five named ranges on another sheet. if the values in cell F1:F1000 appears in the named range "datestore" and the corresponding value in range h2:h1000 appears any of the named ranges "date1" through "date5" I would like it to fill the cell yellow.
I need to have a conditional format that will adjust based on percentage ranges.
1% to 25% would be shaded red
26% to 50% would be shaded Orange
51% to 100% would be shaded Green
I was hoping to reference another cell and have the formatted cell reflect the conditional format. I dont think that's possible, so I can include a percentage in another cell and have that highlighted.
Is there an easy way to copy conditional formatting? I need to copy the same scenario so that it adjusts for each row that it's on (the way formulas do).
For instance, I need to copy cells I4:L4 all the way to rows I84:L84. And I want the rows to adjust depending on what row they're on, like formulas seem to (as apposed to referencing the original cells).
Does that make sense?
I'm running a spreadsheet at the moment in 2007, and one of the funcitons I've made it for certain cells to either change format if the number is to big or to small depending on the cell it is.
I have formatted all for one line against duplicate scores on the same line.
The problem is this is time consuming and there are 22 different lines.
Because with Conditional Formating you can't simply drag like you can with formulas, I was wondering if there was a more simple approach. I have demonstrated the formating required on Row 6, and require the same formating on rows 8:10, 14:26, 32:36.
Also, just to make things complicated, the values change for each line.
I have attatched the file. Row 6 with the label DEMO LINE contains all the correct formating I require.
I am trying to figure out how to copy and paste conditional formatting.
1371908# on hand 16458
ACNF18051 208
ACNF18061 104
ACNF30081 208
1371908 Total416104
1371911# on hand 7053
ACNF18051 208
ACNF18061 104
ACNF30081 208
1371911 Total416104
for instance in the above.. I want to black out any number in the "total" (bold) row that is less than the On Hand Qty (bold and underlined number) and I want to use a running total. For instance for part 1371911 with an On Hand Qty of 7053, the on hand is larger than the the first total of 416 so 416 should be blacked out, it is also larger than 416+104 so 104 should be blacked out as well.
This will continue until the on hand qty is less than the running total. I can conditionally format this one at a time and it could take forever as there are 3000+ lines of spreadsheet. If there is any way that you can tell me how to set the condtional format for one row and then cpy and paste it thoughout the sheet where needed.
i have an equation in A1, and i use conditional formatting for this cell, if the value of C1 is less than 1000, the result in A1 is red
i want to copy the result and the color of A1 to D1, i use paste value, the value and the color are then copied to D1 at first. but when i modify C1, the color of D1 also changed.
Lets say I have a block of cells (lets say A1:E5) that all reference the value in the upper left hand cell (A1). Could be a formula by itself or one embedded within a conditional format. I reproduced the formula and formats in the A1:E5 block by using the absolute cell reference $A$1.
I now want to reproduce that entire block (including the referenced cell A1) multiple times on the sheet, but the catch is that each new block must reference the cell in IT'S OWN upper left hand corner. (e.g. a block located at F10:J15 must use as it's reference F10, not A1).
How can I quickly reproduce those blocks? I have done a search and replace to eliminate the $ symbols within the formulas to make them relative, but that doesn't seem to work within conditional formats.
The issue right now is I am trying to apply conditional formats to a sheet I already constructed. I don't want to overight the formulas in the UL corner, so I am trying to copy and paste the conditional formatting only. Can't seem to figure out how.
It brought up my own thread, I didn't realise it untill today, but the answer I been using uses conditional formating to highlight the lowest cells in each row. And as Sicarii pointed out earlier today you can't select a cell my color with conditional formating turned on. can I highlight some other way or can I select cells to copy some diffrent way. This is the VBA I use to select the lowest price.
Sub FIND_LOW_PRICE()
Range("a1:H6").Select
Selection.FormatConditions.Delete
Selection.FormatConditions.Add Type:=xlExpression, _
Formula1:="=and(a1=min($a1:$H1),not(isblank(a1)))"
Selection.FormatConditions(1).Interior.ColorIndex = 6
End Sub
And this is the code that Sicarii supplied and correctly warned me will not work with conditional formating.
Sub COPY_BASED_ON_COLOR()
Dim RngCol As Range
Dim lLoop As Long
With Sheets("Sheet1")
Set RngCol = .Range("A1", .Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp))
End With
For lLoop = RngCol.Rows.Count To 1 Step -1
If Range("B" & lLoop).Interior.ColorIndex = 6 Then
Sheets("Sheet2").Range("B" & lLoop) = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("B" & lLoop)........................
I'm trying to figure out how to copy & paste the following conditional formatting down the column.
The conditional formatting I'm using is in cell A1, D1, G1, J1, M1 (so I have to Ctrl click each cell manually & I then choose to "format the values that rank in the:" "bottom 1" & format it green.
I want to copy and paste that all the way down column A, D, G, J, & M and have the conditial formatting pick for each row, not the whole column. eg. A2, D2, G2, J2, M2... A3, D3, G3, J3, M3...
Can i copy format from conditional formatting to other sheet or cells?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have this fairly simple formula which decides whether to shade a cell or not
=AND($X$1<>"TBD",R3<>"None",AC3="Y")
This is set in cell R3 and I want to copy it all the way down the cells in the R column. However, when I copy & paste (and copy and paste using paste special, formatting) the R3 and AC3 cell references do not update to match their relevant rows. eg If I highlight cell R26 the conditonal formatting formula still refers to cell R3 and AC3, not R26 & AC26. I'm using Excel 2010 but I don't recall this happening in 2003.
I want to copy cells (include conditional formatting) and paste in mspaint How can i write this code ?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a column "g" with this conditional formatting:- =A2<>A3 Format Bottom Border.
However I will pass this workbook onto someone else who will fill in the text in column "g". They will use copy/paste text from other cells or columns even other workbooks that will not have the conditional formatting.
I have used Cells > Projection > Locked unchecked then used Tools > Protection > Protect Sheet and checked all. There does not seem to be a way to unlock the cell but protect Conditional formatting. Each time I copy and paste from other non formatted cells it wipes out my formatting.
A little background on what i am doing. I have a spreadsheet that tracks when i have blown the dust out of our computers. I have set up conditional formatting so that the text turns red after 300 days and the cell turns yellow after 600 days. However, some computers are in high dust environments. I would like the spreadsheet to tell me to blow the dust out of these sooner. see the attached sheet.

Is 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???
Is there "code" for different formatting in a spreadsheet so you can use an IF statement to do something like:
if(A1=blue background,"Yes","No")
or
if(A1=red text,"Yes","No")
etc.?? But replace "blue background" and "red text" with some sort of number code? I want to compile a list of the items that are formatted with certain background colors and/or text colors and then organize only those items into a chart.
Any VBA that I can put into a macro that will convert conditional formatting into fixed formatting..? So when the cell contents/formulas are deleted the formatting remains. Assume that the range I want to convert is A1:D200...

My boss asked me to format a pivot table like this with irregular ranges:
I've had a crack (as seen below and have gotten everything right except the strange group irregular ranges. I'm stumped! I'm not sure if pivot tables even have a function for irregular group ranges.
My raw data looks like here is its layout:
[1] compare (row) ranges across two columns with an unequal number of rows (column A [number] to column C [number])
[2] save each result of [1] where there was a match in column B
[3] for each row where there was a match (now stored in B), compare the value from the same row in column D (date) with the same row of column F (date), and store the result in column E
[4] count and message box the final number of matches from column E
Data Example:
A B C D E F
----- ----- ----- ----- ----- -----
12345 match 12345 11/1/2011 match 11/1/2011
77777 34345 ... ...
A and C numbers match, so check same row date in D that does match date in E, place "match" in E, then count and display.
Sub other()
Dim range1, range2, range3, range4, range5, range6 As range
Dim x As Variant, y As Variant, z As Variant, a As Variant

I have a spreadsheet, a small section attached. There are near 20000 rows at present. I need to count the number of characters in B1 excluding any hyphen in b1. If a hyphen occurs in b on its own,the count is zero.If b cell is blank,i need a count of all characters in A.I need a formula I can autofill down.The count column is c and I have completed it manually to show what I mean.
View 9 Replies View Relatedi can't seem to figure this one out.
I attached a file showing how i am trying to format data (the second tab).
The big issue is the counting to format. (the formatting itself is obviously easy.)
The number of columns is not always standard so i need to count for it.
the number of rows in each "room number" is also not always standard, which means i also need to count for those.
If anyone has had experience trying to do something like this i would appreciate the help.
i know it is possible because i had one that someone had given me years ago, unfortunately i lost it in a hard drive failure...also years ago.
if it isn't obvious what i am trying to do, let me know and i will try to be clearer.
In the attached file, I have variable range in column A:B, column C:D and in column E:F
I want a macro to do the following:
Start with sheet "A", select the available range in column A
then copy and paste in the sheet "B" but with all the cell values added with the value in H1.
Then in sheet A, simply copy the available range in column B and paste it in sheet B
Do the same until column F in sheet A. Pastespecial if it is odd column. simple past it is even column.
I know the macro code for the simple paste. But I am struggling with the paste special code.
