Any freeware (or shareware if necessary) program that will allow you to change tab colors on spreadsheets in Excel 2000. Later versions do have that ability built in, but 2000 does not.
I am working on a project where I am virtually almost finished except for a minor change with the pie chart. I am analyzing some data and recorded a macro to do this and also the pie chart for visualization. However, I do not like the color of the default pie chart colors and would like to customize it. How could I change this within the macro I have recorded?
My pallet lost color-coding - if I hover over each little scare it displays the names for the colors and if I click on them they color the cells with the right colors, but the palette itself lost the visual display of colors except for 8 colors: black, blue, red, magenta, yellow, cyan, and white.
I use color-coding of cells a lot and I find it difficult to work without visual clues. At least the hover-support allows me to get the work done, but with difficulty.
I'm using excel 2000 and I just noticed something and am unsure how to change. I guess early on my building of a workbook I accidentally left calculation to manual. I would like to change calculations to automatic on permanent basis. I keep changing it and it changes back to manual after I close then reopen the workbook. I would prefer to change permanently to automatic....Any ideas would be a bonus. On all new workbooks I can save in automatic but I cannot change from manual to automatic.
How to change the color of a single tabe. What I'm trying to do now is reset the tab color for all tabs.
Here is my code:
'REMOVE TAB COLOR Dim ws As Worksheet For Each ws In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets With ActiveWorkbook.ActiveSheet.Tab .ColorIndex = xlNone .TintAndShade = 0 End With On Error Resume Next Next ws
I'm new to using loops so I'm not exactly sure what the above code is doing. When I debug it goes through the steps without any errors but it doesn't actually change the tab colors.
I am making some grids which will have a series of numbers in the individual cells. But I can't figure out how to change the colors of the digits. If I change one digit to Red; all the numbers in that cell change to Red. Whereas I would like to have them as Red,Green,Black,Blue,etc.
This is probably very simple but I'm having a problem finding how to change the color of a bar based on the value. For example, when the bar reaches 100% I want the bar to turn green while the other bars in the graph stay the same.
I have a few buttons on my page that I would like to change colors depending on the value in cell AI1. Right now this is the code I have:
[Code] .......
What I would like is to add formatting for "rounded rectangle 4" as well. if the cell = 1, number 4 changes color, if the cell = 2 both change color, and if the cell =3 then only 5 changes color.
I'm trying to get a range of cells to change colors. This should happen from VBA code and happen on specified sheet that is not the default sheet when the userform appears that has the button that triggers the event. I have to reference the range with variables because it changes depending on other events.
I’m sure conditional formatting is the way forward with this but can’t quite get the formula right. I need 2 columns: Column A will have dates that an event happened on. Column B will be blank until we have received back in a letter that went out on the date in column A. At which point the date the letter was received back in will be entered into column B
What I need is for the Colour of Column B to change from green (before and on the date of Column A) to Amber (for the next 3 days) and then red (from Day 5 onwards. This would be until a date was entered in column B (the date the letter is received back in) at which point it would just go back to white. This would keep a check on how long the letter was out for and whether we need to chase it up or not and with an increasing urgency.
If a cells value is between to numbers then I need to change the color of that specific cell to green otherwise cell is to turn red. Also all cells without a value defaults to yellow.
I know this can be done, as I have seen it before, but can't seem to figure out how to replicate it.
I have a speadsheet in which I have a drop-down box for a certain column's values. How do I automatically have each independent row's background color change dependant upon the value selected in that row's drop-down cell box (and update color automatically if a different drop-down selection is made later)?
For example:
Row 1: Cell C Drop-Down Value = "Yes"...change row color to GREEN Row 2: Cell C Drop-Down Value = "No"...change row color to RED Row 3: Cell C Drop-Down Value = "Maybe"...change row color to YELLOW
I attached 2 examples. The first one is before the screen flickering fix I got from Andy Pope. The second is when I added the fix. When you open Example List 1 and you enter 0 at E180, the screen will flicker, but it will change (red) Watching to (green) Planning to Watch in G180.
When you open Example List 2 and you enter 0 at E180, the screen doesn't flicker anymore. The status Watching in G180 still changes to Planning to Watch, but it stays red while it has to become green. How can I have the color changes and no screen flickering? Marco:
I am trying to format certain cells to change colors depending on the date and the content of the next field to show due dates.
cell label due date date completed
c5 au5 be5
c6 au6 be6
c7 au7 be7
c8 au8 be8
What I need is for the contents of au5 to be green up until 10 days before the due date, yellow up until 5 days, and red with less than 5 days until the due date. If the date completed is entered into be5, then the contents of au5 should be black.
Is this possible, and if it is, how do I set this up? I tried to use
=$AU5-TODAY()>=10
And choose green formatting (something I found on yahoo answers), but when I enter the date the text is still the original black font.
I have a spreadsheet that I enter monthly expenditure on.
Column A is expenditure during 24th to 31st Column D is expenditure during 1st to 8th Column G is expenditure during 9th to 16th and Column J is expenditure during 17th to 23rd
Ive been trying to colour the columns grey if todays date is outside the above date ranges each time I open the spreadsheet so its obvious which column my expenditure needs to be entered into.
I am wanting the colors of the bars in a stacked chart to change based on the date in the X Axis. As the current date arrives, the stacked bar needs to change to various blue shades. If the date is in the future, the stacked bar needs to be various grey shades.
I have been asked to create a spreadsheet that will contain three fields;
Date of placement (the day the person arrived) Date of release (the above + 60 days) Billable days for the current month
The first is simple, the clerk will enter the current date when the person arrives.
For the second field I am using:: =SUM(H5+(60),) (H5 is todays date, and will display the results in I5). When H5 is blank, I get the " #VALUE!" error in I5? Is there a more effective function to use?
For billable days, I am using; =SUM(J2 - (H5),) (J2 is simply the last date of the month; 12/31/09, and H5 is the placement date). I want to show the number of billable days in the current month. This will be repeated on 12 sheets (one for each month).
One is just email addresses a@a.com b@b.com c@c.com etc.
The other contains data and also these email addresses I need to compare the 2 and when a match is found change the email address in the data table to something else, say "tony".
I am creating a chart with more than 2000 dates (each day). How can I format the axis so it only displays the 1st day of each quarter (01/01/2010, 01/04/2010, 01/07/2010...).
At the moment I cannot format the axis and minor/major units remain numbers.
I record all jobs that come into my department. Column A contains the Job reference. Column B Contains the date that the job arrived and Column C contains the date that the job was complete.
The job can be split into several sections and can arrive on different days and the sections can be completed in different days.
I am looking to create a table that will show how long the complete job took to complete, so I am looking for the earliest date and the latest date for specific job reference numbers.
An example of my data is:
Column A Column B Column C Ref No Date In Date Out 2013-0055 01/03/2013 25/03/2013 2013-0061 01/03/2013 03/03/2013 2013-0061 02/03/2013 20/03/2013 2013-0055 07/03/2013 28/03/2013 2013-0061 08/03/2013 19/03/2013
From the above data I am looking to create a table that will show
Ref No First Date Last Date Number of Days 2013-0055 01/03/2013 28/03/2013 28 2013-0061 01/03/2013 20/03/2013 20
the macro works fine until it executes the paste values. At that point, the macro jumps to the "CountThem" function which is located in another workbook. The data that I am copy/pasting is in no way connected to any cells that are using that function. Although, other values in the workbook are passed down from data that uses that function.
I am still in the dark ages using Excel 2000.
This is the code for my macro.
Code: Sub Current_to_Raw() ' ' Current_to_Raw Macro ' Macro recorded 2/12/2014 by ' ' Range("N14").Select
How to sort out a way to count cells whose fill colors have been set via conditional formatting.
I'm sure that I was once able to use Chip Pearson's CountOfCF function back in the days of Excel 2003, as it worked around the 3 condition limit and used .ColorIndex which assumed that you'd only ever be formatting using the .ColorIndex values of 1 to 56, but I can't seem to be able to get it to work in 2010.
