I am trying to write some code and I am lost.
Column Y-has Y, N entered in cells
Column R-has 1,2, etc... entered in cells (some cells have color index 26)
Column O-has 1, 2, etc... entered in cells (some cells have color index 3)
Column G-has names entered entered in cells (some cells have color index 38)
I need the macro to check if Column Y has a "N" and then if it does check Column R, O, G and if there is no color index in any of the Columns the macro will delete the row.
If Column Y has a "N" but Column R, O, G has a color index it will not delete the row.
There are 3000 rows on the spreadsheet and the macro would need to go through all the rows.
I have a worksheet with several columns and 1,000's of rows. I have code that makes all "good cells" grey (color index 15) and all "bad cells" red (color index 3).
I would like to do 2 things...
1. If ANY cell is RED, cut the WHOLE ROW and "insert cut cells" below the header row (even if ALL other cells are grey), then repeat the process up the whole worksheet until ANY row with a red cell is at the top.
2. Create a new worksheet named "Trouble Cells", copy the header row along with any rows with red cells.
I would like to keep the formatting the same (for example, the title row is always yellow and is "28" high and all other rows are a height of "12").
I would also like to keep the column width of each column in the new worksheet as well.

I am trying to come up with a macro that will search a range for a specific string of text plus Interior.ColorIndex = 4. The range can have the text in it multiple times but i only want the macro to fire the next line of it if the cell address also has that color. Is there a way that can be done? My code below stops after it finds its first occurrence of the string and moves on to the next lookup. How do i make it look for not only the value but the index color?

I have these two subs in my thisworkbook module.
They do not want to work together.
Is there a way to incorporate the two of them?
T
he first 1 just checks to see if a cell is greater than 0 and colors the Tab green.
The first 1 is this:
Private Sub Workbook_SheetActivate(ByVal Sh As Object)
Dim ShArr As Variant
Dim RunMacro As Boolean
Dim sCounter As Integer
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.
Using Excel 2010.
the table look as follows;..........
Meaning. Cell A1 (A) gets a match then checks in the same row on column two matching with another table B1 (2).. if both cells in both columns are matched, then C1 (55) will be returned. =INDEX(C:C;MATCH(A1;A:A;0);MATCH(A2;B:B;0)). I can sort the whole table and use vlookup, but how can i make it without sorting ?
i would like to add some sorting code by colors and i need to add the color index into a column in the same file + below formula = colorindexofcell(a1,false,true) i need to exclude 2 columns for deleting the report.To reason for that everyday we run the report and next time there are new entries and report needs to be run again
when i double click anywhere on report sheet it deletes the colorindex and formula column as well is there anyway to modify below code by excluding two rows such as "ag" and "ah" column,for deleting process
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
Call Delete_Report
Range(Range("a1"), Cells(Cells.Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp)) _
.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks).EntireRow.Delete
End Sub

I have a spreadsheet which has some cells with blue font. If anyone tries to manually change the contents of these cells a worksheet change macro reads the colour index of the font and, if it is 5 (blue), uses "application.undo" to repair the damage.
When I use the sheet on another computer, the same font colur is being read as a four digit number, 4015 I think from memory, and the code doesn't work.
I am trying to get an Index-Match formula to search a different sheet depending on the value selected in a particular cell using a dropdown list. See the attached workbook.

Through a macro, when I format cells, I use
Cells(x,y).BorderAround ColorIndex:=xlAutomatic
xlAutomatic points to BLACK by default. Could someone tell me how I could reference the actual default colorindex (the grey one which seems to border all other cells, while not being xlAutomatic)?
I am editing code that changes a cell's forecolor and I can't seem to find the number for red. What number is red
to loop through each row in sheets("Layer Layout") and check if there are any red fonts in its cell..If there is, i need to copy the header ("A1") and the rows containing the red fonts to sheets("Report")..

I have modified it very slightly, but unable to set the call to it without getting errors, perhaps someone can shed some light on what i am doing wrong. Dave's original code is
Function ColorFunction(rColor As Range, rRange As Range, Optional SUM As Boolean)
Dim rCell As Range
Dim lCol As Long
Dim vResult
lCol = rColor.Interior.ColorIndex
If SUM = True Then
For Each rCell In rRange
If rCell.Interior.ColorIndex = lCol Then
vResult = WorksheetFunction.SUM(rCell,vResult)
End If
Next rCell
Else
For Each rCell In rRange
If rCell.Interior.ColorIndex = lCol Then
vResult = 1 + vResult
End If
Next rCell
End If
ColorFunction = vResult
End Function.......
I have a bit of VBA code that loops through a range and looks at the color index. If it is color index three then it will put a "1" in the cell six columns over. This code works, but I see over and over again that loops are bad and inefficient. Since I am working on my code being more efficient I wanted suggestions for altrenate code that would do basically the same thing.
Dim Bcell As Range
For Each Bcell In Range("D2:D304")
If Bcell.Interior.ColorIndex = 3 Then
Bcell.Offset(0, 6) = "1"
Else
Bcell.Offset(0, 6).ClearContents
End If
Next Bcell
I have 2 excel files A & B. In cell A1 of file B, I use an index formula to refer to a row in file A. "INDEX('[A.xlsb]A'!$10:$10,1,2)" is the formula used (referring row 10 in file A).
If I update the row number in another cell of file B, is it possible for this formula to refer to that cell to get the row number from file A?
Attached file 140515 Matchsheet.xlsx has formula that finds costs matching two criteria.
But the formula depends on me typing in the specific Worksheet Name: So to find the cost for 'Type 1' products, I enter:
=IFERROR(INDEX('Type 1'!$E$5:$F$11,MATCH($C$4,'Type 1'!$C$5:$C$11,0),MATCH($D$4,'Type 1'!$E$4:$F$4,0)),"")
I want the formula to "see" the sheet name as whatever is in a specific cell.
E.g. Cell B4 says "Type 2". The formula will be:
=IFERROR(INDEX('[WHATEVER NAME IS IN B4]'!$E$5:$F$11,MATCH($C$4,'[WHATEVER NAME IS IN B4]'!$C$5:$C$11,0),MATCH($D$4,'[WHATEVER NAME IS IN B4]'!$E$4:$F$4,0)),"")
Currently i am using index and match in excel but however i am unable to get the result tt I want.. what i need is
Data to check with item master whether all 3 (article, color code and size) matches and if it doesn't match, which of the field is wrong. (eg: wrong color code, wrong size or article don't exist).
[Code] .......
Above is my item master
Data to check
[Code] ........
Example case: 1
Checking first row of data check
Article number: 2-50660147
Color code: 6
Size: M
Result: "Wrong size"
But however, it returns as wrong size as it only reads the first time the article number appear in the item master and does not recognize the second time the article number appears with the correct color and size.
I want to use "If" function to check "color" :
If (Color is yellow,sum(a1:B5),sum(d1:d8))
Is there a formula I can use to see if a cell is highlighted? I need to filter for highlighted cells and want to use a formula to produce a binary result (1 for highlighted or 0 for no highlighting) so I can filter on that to only the highlighted cells.
View 5 Replies View RelatedOk. I am creating item lists in excel for every product that my company sells. I am in need of a formula that does the following:
I want the cell to check to see if there is a value in another cell, and if there is anything at all, i want to display the word Yes as the value, or leave the cell empty.
So I want the cells in Column A to Check if the adjacent cells in Column B have a value. If the column b cells have a value I want the cells in Column A to display the word "Inventory Part". If there is no value I want the cell left blank.
I am currently using this Formula to Search a table on sheet 2 (Tabelle2) and copy the date in the relevent cell (Cells) into the correct cell on Sheet 1 (Master Sheet).
[Code] ..........
Used in cells E10:AZ30 and E33:AZ46
This works perfectly and is the formula behind all relevent cells in Sheet 1.
I would like to keep this but to add that it also copies the background color of the cell in Sheet 2 to the cell in sheet 1.
If i can Bring this Formula into VBA and add the color changing part, It must only work on the cells listed above..
Is it possible to reference a cell's colour in a formula within a spreadsheet - without using VBA? i.e If Cell A1 has a fill colour of yellow, can I have a formula in cell A2 that says If Cell A1 fill colour = Yellow, result = 1 etc. I know this can be done in VBA, and I have done that, but just wondered if possible this way.
View 4 Replies View RelatedIs there a way I can make my check box change color when it's checked? I'd like to have it uncolored and then turn green when checked. Not the cell, but the checkbox itself. I can't seem to make the check box part of the cell, if that would be an easier route to go please let me know. If I have to turn the cell green and not the check box, I'd love for the whole row to turn green.

Is there a way to embolden/highlight/colour, etc. a cell and its contents when a formula in that cell has been overwritten with text?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to add a value to a cell. The value in this cell will either be 1, 2, 3 or 4.
The value of this cell needs to be "1", if the cell to its left is "Red".
The value of this cell needs to be "2", if the cell to its left is "Purple".
The value of this cell needs to be "3", if the cell to its left is "Green".
The value of this cell needs to be "4", if the cell to its left is "Blue".
I believe I need to find the HEX values for the colors, but that is no problem, I just need the formula of the function if you know it.
The loop is putting the correct formula into the cell - but THEN... - I wish to (within the loop and before it moves on) check if the value is equal to OR greater than 1 - if it is, make it a value of 1 (this '1' is then used at the bottom of the column of data to give a total). I need to do this before it moves onto the next cell. What am I doing wrong? Is it because once it puts formula in the cell, it then moves down - do I need to select the cell again first?
