I create many charts with a lot of parantheses. I have to use Word tables usually so that I can align the parantheses OUTSIDE the numbers, so that the numbers are still right aligned. Is there a format option in Excel that would allow me to do the same?
I am wondering if I am able to display dates as text. Example: If I have a date that displays as 5/6/2014 is there anyway I can get it to display as 562014 as text?
We have a list of numbers in a spreadsheet (telephone numbers). The numbers have been put in with () around the country code and hypens separating the rest of the numbers - for example (44) 0111-123456
Is it possible to remove the formatting to just read as a full number e.g 0111123456? I have loads to do and the thought of doing it manually is painful!
is there a way to have the number formatting in Text() variable? For instance, I want to reference a cell that can change between $1.00 and $10,000,000.00.
Let's say that in A3, the number turns out to be $10,000.00.
When I put in text(a3,"$0.00") it spits out $10000.00. But if I go the other route and go text(a3,"$000,000,000) it displays "$000,010,000.00".
I am using the following format code for the y axis of a line chart. I am shortening the axis to show 3M or 500K instead of $3,000,000 or $500,000. I can't get it to work with negative numbers, I get the full $3,000,000. Somewhere I read you can only do 3 formats in a formula. Is there a way to include negative numbers using this formatting?
However it added a "." to all positive and negative numbers regardless of whether there were decimals after it.
e.g.
10 displayed as 10. -30 displayed as (30.)
In otherwords - I am trying to find the "general" format and modify it to include brackets for negative number, and also modify it so that the positive numbers aligning with the negative numbers with the ) over hanging.
I have almost 300-400 records of such data which needs formatting. There are n number of IDs in the first column & corresponding data in columns 2 & 3.
For those rows which have identical ID numbers, I need to fill those rows with some unique shade of color. If you look at the next sheet, I have manually colored the rows & that is my desired outcome. The shade of color does not matter. It just needs to be unique for each ID.
I'm designing a spreadsheet for our department which tracks a students progress throughout their time at the school. There are 4 levelsStatementSchool Action PlusSchool ActionMonitorIn year 7, they may come into our school at Monitor level, but when they get to year 8 they may have moved to Action Plus. I want to highlight that change on my spreadsheet with conditional formatting if possible so if they go up, the cell will turn red, if they move down the list the cell will turn green.
I've created two columns on an options sheet (which holds all my data validation lists) and assigned a number to each of the levels so i can conditionally format my columns using < and > but I don't know how to write the lookup formula
I currently have account numbers formatted 1.234.5678 and need to convert them all to 1234.5678. how this can be done without manually keying 22,000 account numbers?
I have a sheet that has conditional formatting that looks at column D2 for a number and divides that by half. it then colors in a corresponding cell on a row in the sheet that matches that number. the problem i am having is with odd numbers like 23 it gives a result of 11.5 . all my cell numbers are all rounded to whole numbers. i need to round the 11.5 to 12 or 13 it does not matter which one... i just need it to round it up or down. I have tried everything i can think of but have had no luck. I attached my workbook so you can see how it works.
Which gives me "1" in column "D" (last number in string)
In column "P" I have a number which I want to apply conditional formatting to, to highlight if the numbers in "D" and "P" do not match.
What is happening is that the conditional format is seeing the formula not the number and therefore always applies the condition. How do I correct this.
I looked though the site with the search and saw some things that came close, but no cigar.
I have a column of numbers formated in a constant string
eg 1234121231234
The number needs to be formatted into four sections
eg 1234-12-123-1234
I have the code to put the dashes in, but I am looking for the loop statement to take it down column C reading in each number in the 1234121231234 format until the end, and replacing it one by one with the 1234-12-123-1234.
' calls the function to put the dashes in the NSN in the QRL
'First 4 of NSN first4 = Left(NSN, 4) 'Second2 of NSN nsn9 = Right(NSN, 9) For Y = 1 To Len(nsn9) second2 = Left(nsn9, 2) Next Y 'Next3 of NSN nsn7 = Right(NSN, 7) For Y = 1 To Len(nsn7) next3 = Left(nsn7, 3) Next Y 'Last4 of NSN last4 = Right(NSN, 4)
suppose I have the numbers 1-25 in a column. I want to color the numbers 1,4,7,10,13,16,19,22,25 green, color 2,5,8,11,...25 orange and color 3,6,9,12...25 red. I can not set up the conditional formatting formulas correctly.
I have column A with Different status like Open, closed, available etc. Column B have numbers. i am looking for a formula in condition formatting for column B.
If the cell value in column B is 2 or more, the same cell should be highlighted in Green.
If the cell value in column B is 1, the same cell should be highlighted in Yellow.
If the cell value in column B is 0, the same cell should be highlighted in Amber.
If the cell value in column B is less than 0, the same cell should be highlighted in Red.
If the cell value in column A is "Available", cell in column B should be highlighted in Amber.
I need the conditional formatting to make all numbers that are zero clear (i.e. no fill).
I need it to make all negative numbers to be red, however it doesn't seem to recognize "-1" as a number, and ends up highlight everything red when I say "highlight values < -1 red".
I want to have Excel highlight one or two numbers/cells in one column based on the value in another cell. I am attempting to do this using Conditional Formatting.
For example, if X1 is BETWEEN A2 and A3, I want to highlight A2 AND A3. I have used various AND and IF functions to achieve this goal.
Also, if X1 is EQUAL to A2, I want A2 to be highlighted. This is easy to do with a simple formula.
But my problem is this: if X1 is equal to A2, I want ONLY A2 highlighted. If X1 is between A2 and A3, I want BOTH A2 and A3 highlighted. I cannot figure out how to achieve both. For example, when X1 = A3, A2 AND A3 are being highlighted, instead of just A3. I would prefer to do this without a macro, if possible. Can this be done?
Example formulas I have tried which easily achieve the highlighting of two cells when the value is between them:
It appears that the +IF, etc. functions are not doing anything.
This is more complicated by the fact that the value of, in the above example, I35 is based on a value from another sheet (I used a function to transfer a value from one sheet to I35 in the other sheet). As data are entered on Sheet1, the value in I35 in Sheet2 changes.
A text box on a Userform inputs numbers to a cell in a worksheet. I want the number to appear in the text box formatted #,##0.00 However, if I include the line
in either the csDepositTextBox_Change or _AfterUpdate events, it causes the number to be stored as text in the worksheet. Curiously I can put the code in the corresponding event for another textbox and it does not corrupt the formatting.
I have a table that has labels of departments. Then each of those departments will be tracked per week on a number. I am looking for a formula for conditional formatting that if cell C5 is less than B5 that cell C5 (with the smaller number) fills green. Then depending on the next weeks number it will have no fill or a green fill if the number has decreased in cell D5.
Is there anyway that I can do an array of cells or do I have to do it individually per column?
What would be the best way to apply conditional formatting where you actually want to apply a background and foreground colour to cells that have many different item numbers, ex:
6201 = Dark blue font, light blue background 6202 = Dark Green font, light green background 6230 = Dark Purple font, light purple background 6245 = ... 6445 = ... 6447 = ... 6448 = ...
and the list goes on for about 200 different colour combinations.
I know I can do this in conditional formatting using the ribbon, but I wonder if there was a faster way to do this
i wish to do some conditional formatting. my target for the first 6 months from date activated is 50,000 after 6 months is 100,000. and for those below target, i will need it to be highlighted in red. thus i have 2 sets of conditions.(calculate the no. of months and the revenue).
I have several text boxes on a 'picture' which is the format for a business review. The text boxes are linked to cells behind the picture which picks up company names, cities etc...
Two of the boxes have a phone# and date
The linked cells are formatted correctly but obviously the text boxes, pick up the 'values' not the formats.
is there any way for the textboxes to show the values with the proper format i.e.,
