Excel 2010 :: Use Nested IF Formula To Color Cells?
May 16, 2014
I am trying to use the IF formula or a similar VBA/Macro to color certain cells. We deal with 16 different sand types that come in on rail cars. I want to put in the sand type in a cell; EX: C11 has text "30/50BH" if this statement is true to color cells A11-D11 yellow. If it is not a true statement to check for the next sand type, "20/40BH" and go on from there. If I can get an example of what to do I can build it for the 16 sands we have.
The formula I have in mind would be something like
=IF("30/50BH",[colorA11:D11,Yellow],[IF("20/40BH",[colorA11:D11, Purple], .......
I'm sure there is a less brute force method of doing this, but my knowledge of programming and excel is limited. I am using the 2010 version of Excel.

I am using Excel 2010 and basically i am trying to fill a range of cell with a green color if any value was enter in a specific cells. Example: I would like to fill range: A10:c13 with a green color (regardless of the cells content in this range) if a value was entered in cell C10 or C11 or C12 or C13.
I've tried conditional formatting but unfortunately I'll have to apply formatting for every cell and for a range of over hundred cells is not efficient.

I am using Windows 7 and Excel 2010.
Is there a way to create a macro to color code a cell based on the value in a cell, and then look up a value in a table, then color code it based on where it fits into the table?
I have a table of values for about 30 projects. In column g - there is a CPI value (see bold column)
Example: Project ID
Name
Program
PMT
SI ID
AC
Milestone
TCP Level
[Code] ......
Here is the table:
I have to color code a cell, base on the CPI and how it fits into the table below. So if the current Milestone is M2 or M3 and the CPI calculated is .14 the cell would be colored RED, if the CPI number is 2.01 for M2-M3 I would want cell to be colored Turquiose. If we were at Milestone M6 and the CPI was 2.01, it would be colored blue. If the CPI was .75 at Milestone M5, it would be colored Green
LEGEND
Earned Value Limits
Milestone
RED
Yellow
Green
Turquoise
Blue
M2-M3
2.15
M4-M6
1.66
M7-M11
1.26

Using Excel 2010.
I extracted data from .pdf to Excel using Able2Extract. Now I need to scrub the output a bit.
I see commonalities in the data for the start and stop of each set of data that I can key in on.
Once I find the start and stop points for each set of data I would like to fill all rows in-between the points and then discard anything that remains outside of these boundaries.
I have something wrong in my logic, way too many rows are deleted.
Code:
Option Explicit
Sub GetLineSets()
'Purpose: Identify relevant line sets, delete all other rows
Dim wbBook As Workbook
Dim wsData As Worksheet
Dim strFormula As String
Dim lngRows As Long
Dim C As Range
Dim blnFlag As Boolean
[Code] ......

I have got a table with data from 2005 to date, (for example) For the purpose of what I am doing I need a column which shows date ranges between September 2005 - August 2006 to show as 2005/2006, then September 2006 - August 2007 to show as 2006/2007. I have done some research and seen that, Potentially, a nested 'IF' can be used but it can only be used 7 times which would cause a problem going forward....
Is this the only way or is there a better way (without using VB)?

1) What's the maximum limit of IF statements in a formula for MS Excel 2010?
2) I have 8 nested IF statements, but I am having trouble with the False part of the argument. I was able to get the False part to work for the 4th argument (because I simply put a comma and closed it's respective colored parenthesis) but the following 3 I can't seem to get and the following message pops when I hit enter "The formula you typed contains an error."
For the False part of the remaining 3 nested statement which is at the end of the formula I just type:
IF($E$2="Q3"........)))IF($E$2="Q2".....)))IF($E$2="Q1")))
And close it's respective colored IF statement argument. I tried putting a comma at the end of each False part for the arguments but it pops with the message "You've entered too many arguments for this function."

I'd like to apply multiple formula to a set of cells on a summary page. My summary page also contains 3 variable dropdowns, and I'd like to display data based on the text selected in those dropdowns (pulling data from 2nd tab "Variables")
The following formula works in the first instance:
=IF(AND(H4="Product Type A1", H6="External", H8="Existing"), Variables!C4, 0)
What I'm struggling to do is add additional formula to the same cell in order to deal with the remaining eventualities of the drop down variables:
Variable 1:
Product Type A1
Product Type A2
Product Type B1
Product Type B2
Variable 2:
Internal
External
Variable 3:
Existing
New
Or am I better using a VLOOKUP or something?

I'm trying to create a macro to insert a formula into a specific cell. The formula is meant to check if a cell has text, and then if it does, search for the text on another page.
I had a go at the code, but keep getting Runtime error 13.
I'm using Excel 2010
Code:
Sub new_entry()

The situation is that I have 3 interest income from 3 different companies. Column B acts as a helper column to determine if a partner receives just one interest income or receives multiple interest income. If they receive multiple interest income, I want column B to display a 1 and if not make it blank. If you notice partners 5, 9, and 16 contain two or more interest incomes (Columns C - E). All the cells are have either an amount (positive or negative) or a zero. There are no blank cells. Columns (F - H) contains the interest income amount if only that partner receives just one interest income. So for those partners they should not display any of their amounts. The reason is because I am using a word template and currently have to use multiple templates ( 3 in total) to display correctly for each partner. I got this to work with a word macro that will collapse all non blank columns in a particular table. This might be on a ongoing project for me as I do have more logic to solve.

In my worksheet, I know the last line of my report AND I know how many "reporting segments" (all equidistant and identical) there are in the report based on the last row using the below (which I tested in several reports in messages):
VB:
Dim vListEnd As Variant
Dim vTaskCount As Double
vListEnd = ActiveSheet.Range("A1").Offset(Sheet1.Rows.Count - 1, 0).End(xlUp).Row
vTaskCount = ((vListEnd - 5) / 22)
My "reporting segments" are ALWAYS 22 rows each and the first one always starts in row 5. Example: A document where the last row (containing an End of Report special character) is 247 would have 11 reporting segments.
Within each reporting segment, there are two different formulas needed.
For the first reporting segment located in rows A5 thru J27:
I need FORMULA1 in all cells of the range (D5:D15 dragged out to H5:H10(not 15) and D18) and FORMULA2 in cells (F20:F22,J20:J22).
Then I need to repeat that vTaskCount number of times (number of segments) and at intervals of 22 (segment repeater offset). Some reports may have 2 segments, some might have 50, but the structure is always identical.
My formulas are all pretty simple if it makes a difference (originally using FormulaR1C1 = "=RC[-1]+RC[-3]" --- but because I now know solid cell locations I suppose I don't need to make them relative, too.)

I have set up a formula to sum data from specific columns in multiple sheets in the same file. The simple formula had worked perfectly until I needed the data from the last sheet. In all of the other sheets the data that I need to pull is all in consecutive rows but in the last sheet the data that I need pulled and added is in every 4th row. The sheet looks like this:
All of the columns I've filled in work fine. The ones blank are the ones I am running into issues with. When I drag down the formulas excel pulls the next consecutive rows, which is perfect for the first four sheets I am summing, but for the fifth sheet (I'll ref the Test1 column) I need it to pull 'Wayne 2014'!C6 and then 'Wayne 2014'!C10 in the next row and so forth.
Date
All Test
Test1
Test2
Test3
Test4
$ Amt.
Jan.16
=SUM(C2+D2+E2+F2)
[Code] ........
The first four sheets look like this, which is why they work fine:
Date
All Test
Test1
Test2
Test3
$ Amt.
Jan. 16
=SUM(C2:E2)
[Code] ........
The fifth sheet looks like this: I only want the formulas from the first sheet to pull the data from the dated rows in this sheet.
Date
All Test
Test1
Test2
Test3
$ Amt.
Jan. 16
=SUM(C2:E2)
=SUM(C3:C5)

Is there any way in Excel 2010 to get it do what I want? (I am not sure how that one cell became outlined and I do not know how to fix it.)

how to apply conditional formatting via VBA to a range of cells based on input from another range of cells. Obviously this would be easy in Excel 2010, but I'm still using 2003 at the office and it needs to stay in this format to be readable by other users:
For cells M8:EK8, my conditional formatting
condition 2: Formula Is =AND($E$8>=M2,(($E$8-$D$8)>=(N2-$M$2))), color index is 40
condition 3: Formula Is =AND($F$8<=M2,$G$8>=M2), color index is 39
I want to add:
condition 4: Formula Is =AND($H$8<=M2,$I$8>=M2), color index is 40
condition 5: Formula Is =AND($J$8<=M2,$K$8>=M2), color index is 39
and so on
The cells in the range M8:EK8 are blank, they only get colored based on input added to D8 to K8. If there is no input, then the cells should be uncolored.

I tried Conditional format and no luck. (Office 2010)
What I'm trying to do VB is:
If Cell B:B has value of "402" or "up"
and Cell C:C is less >100
Then Change color on Cell C:C to "yello, red, etc" (if C value is <100 no color change)

Using Excel 2010 Pro.
I have a formula to create a string to create a lable for a Trial Balance report
=LEFT(I5&" "&REPT(".",95),101)
But the decimal portion of the string is distracting. I would like to make it a grey instaed of a black so that the text portion of the label "pops".
I don't believe I can do it with conditional formatting and I do not want to do it manually.I was thinking some kind of function or UDF like:
=LEFT(I5&" "&RGB(REPT(".",95),(191,191,191)),101)

I have a workbook in Excel2010 with 2 sheets. I have put in a conditional formatting in 27177 cells. After a lot of waiting it finally worked out and the cells that should turn RED, do show correctly. The strange thing is that my "filter by color" stays disabled. This applies both to the columns I've applied the conditional formatting to, as well as any other column that has a colored cell.
The second sheet in the file also have colored cells and there the option works perfectly fine. So it seems to have something to do with the particular sheet.
why the function got disables in the particular worksheet.

1 workbook, 2 worksheets (or tabs). On tab 1, I want a formula/alert that tells the user if any duplicate values exist in Column A of tab 2
Tab 2, Column A, has Unique ID's (6 digit numeric values)
The user manually inputs the ID's on new rows in Column A
Row 1 is reserved and in use for something else
Row 2 is my header, so cell A2 says "ID"
Row 3-623 currently contain unique ID's
When the user inputs a new ID into cell A624, then they return to Tab 1, I want my formula/alert on Tab 1 to tell the user that they have duplicates in Column A of tab 2. I know the Conditional Formatting, but if the user copies in 100 new values, they won't necessarily see the highlighted cells. My tab 1 is my "checks and balances" and the last place the user is suppposed to look to ensure that they haven't created any duplicate ID's. If the user sees a warning message that says duplicates exist, then I'll tell them that they need to look at column A (for cells that have been conditionally highlighted).
One issue that I'm running into with the conditional highlighting is that I want cells A3:A1048576 to already have the conditional formatting - this way when the user inserts a value into Cell A624, then A625, etc they conditional formatting is already there. Right now with data in cells A3:A623, cells A624:A1048576 are all highlighted with the Red/Bold Red Font (which is okay I guess), but ideally it would be nice to not count 2+ empty cells as duplicates and I'll have to have my formula on Tab 1 not include the blank cells.
I DO NOT want to use the Remove Duplicates feature of Excel 2010. If I remove them I could be removing data in columns B, C, D, etc that belong to the Unique ID. I just need the user to be told in Tab 1 that they DO have duplicates and I'll train the user how to research this and fix it.
The reason I want to look for duplicates in the entire Column A is because the list of Unique ID's will grow over time.

I'm trying to do a nested formula to automatically assign a region number based on what the County is. We have 88 counties we deal with, split into 7 regions. What is the best way to go about setting up a formula to do this, so I don't have to do it manually? I believe the last time I tried doing something like this, I received an error saying that Excel didn't support a formula as big as what I was writing.

I am using Excel 2010 and trying to change/edit the color of the tabs in my workbook to turn green or red based on a y or n placed in a cell (the same cell on each tab). I have tried variations on several themes others have asked about as well for Excel 2007 and attempted to adapt them to fit my situation but none seem to work. Here's what I was starting with:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Select Case Range("A1").Value
Case Is < 2.5
Sheet1.Tab.Color = vbRed
Case Is > 2. 5, Is < 4
Sheet1.Tab.Color = vbGreen
End Select
End Sub
The cell I'm using is F2 and my cell value is simply y or n. I realize the example above references numeric values and greater than/less than options, but I'm not sure how to correct this for my need.

In Excel 2010, you can color a cell with a fill color and a font color.
It can be done manually via one of 3 methods that I know of (aside from a macro or a routine):
-From the ribbon button (underneath the font size and increase and decrease font size toolbar buttons)
-By formatting the cell (right clicking on a cell),
-Clicking on the ribbon's font section (giving you the same 6 category format cell box as right clicking on a cell)
What I need is a routine that resets the Fill Color and Font Color toolbar buttons to "No Fill" and "Automatic" if I run it inside a macro or create a command button on a worksheet.

i am having trouble putting together an IF Formula together with and/or. i need to do the following
if cells k8 and l8 and r8 are empty, then no data should show.
if cells k8 and l8 and r8 is zero, then show zero.
otherwise add all three cells.
i thought i should use if(and... that is all 3 cells must be empty or zero.
=IF(OR(ISBLANK(K8),ISBLANK(L8),ISBLANK(R8)), "no data", IF(OR(K8=0, L8=0, R8=0),"ZERO", K8+L8+R8))
i have tried if(and) and if(or) and no matter what i have tried it doesnt work

Looking forward VBA coding for:
If input is entered into column C (range C2:C100), then row cells for columns D, E ,F, H or I must NOT be blank upon save.
Could be that one or more of these row cells are left blank by mistake.
An error msg pops up upon attempting to save, stops the save and colors each cell yellow that needs info entered into.

I have an Excel 2010 spreadsheet consisting of many worksheets (20 or so). Each of these worksheets contain detail level data regarding different projects. One of the columns in these worksheets is the 'Status' column (column F). There is conditional formatting on this column where if the text is 'G' then change background to a green color, 'Y'=yellow, 'R'=Red and 'U'=Grey.
The first worksheet is a summary sheet that I would like to pull information from each of the detail worksheet's columns B, D, E, G and H if the status column (Column F) is 'R' or 'Y'.
The number of rows in the detail worksheet can change each week (as few as 0 and as many as 100)

I would like to accomplish 2 things in my Excel 2010 spreadsheet by click a cell which already has a number and formatting in it.
1. How do I change the color of the cell, the color of the number in it, and the border around it. (Make it look like I just pressed a button by clicking it.)
2. At the same time have the text in different cell and the number in the selected cell appear in another different cell. (Text in a different cell = A , and the number in the selected cell = 23, the value in the resulting cell be "A 23") Everything I would like to happen at the same time by clicking the selected cell. I would also like this to be done several times by clicking different cells and not changing the previously selected cells.

So i've been trying to do this invoice/inventory/client , I couldn't find a way to somehow register the whole invoice as it is, so i can later print/visualize it if i lost the copy or something.
It would be best if it just stayed stored in a variable and not always visible, and only appeared if i wanted to check/print it.
The whole invoice would be from A1 to F30
Excel 2010 btw
