Automatic Auto Filtering: Filter The List And Have A Box For Users To Type In Text
Aug 25, 2006I have a list of a couple of thousand (and more) individual items. I want to filter the list and have a box for users to type in text (there are no numbers) and the results will be seen automatically reducing in number as more text is entered. (Similar to the Windows HELP files )
eg, typing A (or a) will show all entries beginning with A (without pressing
"Enter" or similar
typing AB will show only entries beinning with AB
typing ABO will show .........I guess you will understand the idea.
I have tried various forms of Filter - Auto and advanced - but still cannot get the spreadsheet to do what I want. Unless I am not doing the Autofilter (or Advanced filter) correctly (I am still a relative beginner!) I still cannot find a way of simply adding letters to a cell or input box and the filtering takes place 'automatically' as the letters are added.
Changing Colour Of The Filter Indicator
Apr 19, 2007I don't know if this can be done. When i put on an autofilter in a spreadsheet, and I filter on a particular column, the autofilter arrow is highlighted in blue to show that I have filtered this column. Is there anyway I can change the colour of this indicator from blue to say red?
View 3 Replies View RelatedCreated Validation Drop-down List - Can I Make The Row Now Change To The Colour That Relates To The Selection From The List
Jan 13, 2009I am trying to create a fairly simple spreadsheet with about 8 columns and about 400 rows. One of the columns features a drop-down list with about 8 or 9 different options. Dependant on which option is selected, i would like the entire row to change colour with that option.
For example:
FAILED - whole row changes red
SUCCESSFUL - row has no fill
Tested - row changes to orange
etc.
Is this possible within Excel 2003?

Correlation Between Colour Brightness And The Auto Change From Black Text To White Text?
Aug 16, 2013So I have been playing around with the tab colors on my workbook and am trying to figure out the correlation between color brightness and the auto change from black text to white text. I've noticed that if the Green color value is higher, excel is more likely to use the black text. If Blue is high, white. Green takes precedence over Blue and Red is just kind of in its own world.how excel calculates this?

Changing Text Box Colour Based Off Another Text Box Value?
Dec 5, 2013I have an userform with 10 txtBoxes that I want to have the color changed based off another textbox Values (they will side by side, so when the user enter a value, it will know either it's excelent, good, average or bad based on the colors green, blue, yellow and red).
Is there a way to do so? Because all I have managed to do is to change one txtBox color per time, based on the value entered on the same text box (i.e. if I change the text box which should be changed, nothing changes).
Hyperlink Cell To Filter That Cell Value Based On Colour Filters Used In Another Sheet?
Aug 5, 2013I have a table which says that this is the amount of coloured cells we have in another sheet.
For e.g.

List Building Based On Cell Value Or Colour
Jun 18, 2014I am trying to create a Macro/VB code that will build 4 lists based on a list (see attached example).
I have a list of applications and the numbers of users having them installed on their computers, these applications are marked using a RAG status (Red, Amber, Green & NBR No Business Requirement) on a seperate work sheet i want to split them by these RAG statuses, the status of applications changes as they are packaged for SCCM, so the RAG status will be changed, so i want the code to be able to rebuild the lists at any time to obtain an accurate view of the numbers at each status.
Colour Formatting Rows By Validation List
Feb 12, 2008My Objective: Simplified
Assuming a range A1:G15
A Validation list in column H
The Validation List options are: Blue,Pink,Green,Black,Grey,Yellow,Orange and None or '
how I create a Case Select code to change, the row range dependant on the option selected in the validation list.....or most efficient code to achieve my objective.
Or the most efficient code method to achieve the outcome I am seeking.
What I can't figure out 1:
How to incorporate the validation list selection to recognise the colour option selected.
What I can't figure out 2:
I want to be able to format a row any of colours in the list, so if it is black, would I need to clear the black format before changing it to say Orange, or is it possible to go straight from black to Orange?
What I have tried:
I am aware of the limitation of three formats using "Conditional Formatting" so want to expand the colour formatting possbilities using code, by selecting choice of format colour from a validation list.
I did a macro recording, selecting the appropriate option within the Validation List, and then formatting a row range....I experimented with the resulting code to no success, although I have a copy of VBA and Macros for MS Excel....theres a lot to think about....and I can't quite grasp what's required.
Code I have used in the passed for a similar but different worksheet:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
On Error GoTo Err_Handler

Colour Rows Based On List Colours (No Conditional Formatting)
Oct 3, 2012As far as I can tell Conditional Formatting will not work for this problem.
What I need now is some code to colour the rows in the data sheet ("Standards_Data"), so some other code (which is working fine) can then colour data points on a multiple graphs (which will be on the "Graphs" sheet). I've played around with as much code as I can find but nothing has the flexibility that I need or doesn't seem to work at all.
The idea is that users can adjust the colours using the Column A on the "Graphs" sheet to best highlight certain things. Also this list could then be edited as old Standard ID's become redundant and new ones come on line.
So in a nutshell: Colour rows in "Standard_Data" based on value of Standard ID (Column 4) according to the corresponding colour found in the list in the "Graphs" sheet.
I've attached a trimmed down version of the workbook.

Sep 25, 2007I have used the following Formula to count the number of times that ABC occurs in red text within the listed range, and it works fine
=PERSONAL.XLS!CountByColorText($G$4:$R$211,3,TRUE,"ABC")
I now want to count the number of times that (F) occurs in red text within the listed range, the difference being that (F) is always only the last three digits in the cell eg ABC (F)
I have tried this formula =PERSONAL.XLS!CountByColorText($G$4:$R$211,3,TRUE,"*(F)*")and get 0, which is incorrect
Worksheetfunction.text() And Font Colour
Sep 4, 2009The following code does everything I need it to except for some reason it is not sending the font colour through first or the font colour is getting overwritten. I have formula in other worksheets that are counting the red and the blue to determine which rider in a team it is. For some reason the time sent to "B Grade" worksheet is ending up in black font. Can anyone explain to me why this is occuring.
I am using worksheet function.text because I am working with elapsed times that could be over 24hrs. I was wondering if the default text colour for the worksheet.text() function is black and if it could be changed.
