The guy at the end of the post says he got it working in the end, but no one seems to have posted the final solution - could someone tell me if the solution is actually in the thread, and if so where!
My problem is outlined by this guy - basically i want to be able to delete rows in a range that have no fill color, and so keep the ones that are colored.
I am a locksmith and attempting to write a spreadsheet app. for my line of work. The output page will use columns A-G and rows 1-?10000? depending on the size of the system. If a 5 pin system is requested then columns A+B will be blacked out. 6 pin system A is blacked out. 7 pin system nothing blacked out. Also, if any cell matches the master key that was input, that cell is filled with red. I know, confusing.
Basically, I am trying to remove the blacked out columns automatically, and to remove the enitire row is any cell in that row is filled with red. Then to remove blank lines.
Is there a way to color fill an entire row based on a value in a certain column? Say I have a large file and one column is "yes" or "no" If I wanted all of the "yes" rows to be colored -
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.
In my excel sheet, data present in the column are in dynamic range. After that I want to delete or clean all blank column which is bordered and in fill color. What VB program I have to write.
E.g. if data is present upto column 'J', then I have to clean all columns from 'K' onwards..(where bordered and fill color there)
is there any easy way to fill alternate rows of a worksheet with a particular color? I have a worksheet with 175 rows and alternate rows are to be filled with green!
My macro works fine but I'm interested in seeing if I can speed it up. What I'm doing is starting at the bottom and comparing it with the row above and if they match in font color it will fill the top with orange and delete the bottom. This works but usually takes several minutes.
Public Sub ADMINCompareList() Dim varTest1, varTest2 Dim lng As Long, i As Integer, iTest As Integer Application. ScreenUpdating = False Worksheets("ADMIN").Activate For lng = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count To 2 Step -1 If Not Range("M" & lng).Font.Color <> Range("M" & lng - 1).Font.Color Then Goto newrow End If varTest1 = Intersect(Range("J:W"), Rows(lng)) varTest2 = Intersect(Range("J:W"), Rows(lng - 1)) For i = 1 To 14....................................
I have a pivot table full of data that needs a macro/vba/something to loop through it and hide all rows that have no fill color. The table had 210 rows so I want a quick way of hiding the irrelevant ones (only the ones filled in green or red), and so all the ones with no fill need to be hidden. Something like a button to hide/unhode would be ideal.
I want to write a macro to fill color in row 8 of the worksheet as solid black . Also columns P,T,AP,BC ,BE and BG should be filled solid black and width should be 1 for the row and the column.
If I use Conditional Formatting I can only use 3 colors, I'd like to use 8 or 9. Is there another way to do this without using the Conditional Formatting?
i have some problem in display the highlight cell to another worksheet. Below is in module, i would like to display the highlighter cell to another worksheet.

I wrote a macro to color the cell values in the rows based on their average value. For eg if the cell value is less than 0.2 Avg, they should be red color,if value is between 0.2 and 0.5 it should be yellow. This part is working fine
Now based on the color of the rows cells , need to write a macro for the header one. Logic is Coloum header should be in red colour, if in one or more number of rows cells are red. same with yellow ones. Could you please help me out in solving this with logic.
I want to highlight the cell of Column 'A' of excel only when it does not contain the text like "Verify", "Validate" or "Evaluate" in its content if, the value in corresponding cell of Column 'B' holds the value 'Y'. Secondly, the column 'A' can't contains the words like 'Verify', 'Validate' and 'Evaluate' if the corresponding cell in Column 'B' holds value 'N'. So just need to highlight those discrepancies if its there.
Column A Column B Expected Action
Press F3 N Its Fine
Verify this.. Y Its Fine
this.... Y Need to Highlight Cell of Column A as Value in Column B is Y but the column A does not contain any value like "Verify", Validate" or "Evaluate"
Verify This. N Need to Highlight Cell of Column B as the Value of Column A contains words like "verify", "validate", "evaluate" but corresponding cell value in column B does not hold value "Y".
I'm trying to discover the best way to accomplish formatting a cell by filling it a certain color based on 2 of 3 criteria of other cells.
Column A has the title of the field. Cells B1:D1 have one of 3 values: Nothing/blank, Complete, or x. If all of the x's are gone within the range of B1:D1, I'd like to automatically format cell A1 to fill in Blue (or any color).
I have a simple spreadsheet. A column for a persons name and 31 columns, one for each day of the month. I want to apply conditional formatting, either fill color or border color, to the date column of the current date when the spreadsheet is opened.
I have a detailed note inside biweekly.xls, it explains everything in context.
Two excel sheets, one is updated manually (Vikki's Yearly Averages.xls), while the other is for reporting (biweekly.xls)
The coding will all be in biweekly.xls.
First, it needs to take a date to the right of a name from biweekly.xls and use the month and year from that date for the search.
Then it needs to look in VYK.xls under the name and copy every entry starting in the year specified and month specified and ending at the current date.
I have a worksheet that when a row changes based on the value of column B, I want to remove all of the formulas found in the row but keep the existing values, and then change the color of the row.
In the sample file attached, when the value is "Closed", that row will keep the existing values and then it gets grayed out. Rows that are still marked "Open" need to retain the formulas in case other information changes.
I have tried copy/paste special using autofiltering but that doesn't work because of the hidden lines. This file changes on a daily basis and I need a quick way to update the file.
I have a spreadsheet with multiple colored rows (grey rows are company headers, white rows are orders). I would like to find and delete any multiple company headers (i.e. grey rows followed by another grey row) and keep only the company headers that have orders (i.e. grey rows follwed by white rows). I have attempted the following macro but it doesn't seem to be validating the initial "If" since I keep receiving my "no good" ...
I am using conditional formatting to apply a light green color (index number 35). Is there a macro that can delete the cell contents of the cells with this formatting in col K and L?
I used this macro to find the duplicates in column B:
Sub KryDups() ScreenUpdating = False FirstItem = ActiveCell.Value SecondItem = ActiveCell. Offset(1, 0).Value Offsetcount = 1 Do While ActiveCell <> "" If FirstItem = SecondItem Then ActiveCell.Offset(Offsetcount, 0).Interior.Color = RGB(255, 0, 0) Offsetcount = Offsetcount + 1 SecondItem = ActiveCell.Offset(Offsetcount, 0).Value Else ActiveCell.Offset(Offsetcount, 0).Select FirstItem = ActiveCell.Value SecondItem = ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Value Offsetcount = 1 End If Loop ScreenUpdating = True End Sub
The duplucate cells are now red in color. (RGB(255, 0, 0)). How do I now code VB to delete the rows in column B where the cell color is red? Here is some of the code that I tried:................
