Highlight Cell If Cell On Different Sheet Has Same Value?
Jul 29, 2011
code to manipulate to get my spreadsheet to do what I want. To no avail, I entered file records in a spreadsheet and each file will be given a certain location that pertains to where they go in the storage container. I have a mapping of the storage container in the sheet labeled "Container Mapping". There are three seperate sheets labeled "Files", "Purchasing PO's", and "Part Numbers". Each of these sheets has a column labeled "Location" on them. What I would like to do is create some code that updates the container mapping in the "Container Mapping" sheet when new locations are entered into the three other sheets. Also, an error check to prevent duplicate entries and entries outside of the container mapping range would be ideal to have as well.
I have some code that I have already created using If and For loops but I have heard that using loops is very inefficient. Since my programming knowledge ends at using the C programming language I did not know any other way to implement the highlighting function. Also, I have a Auto Caps function implemented for the location columns so the user is safeguarded against entering a non capitalized location number.
I have two Sheets, first is Service Data, the second is Log Sheet. In the Service Data sheet I have a column of serial numbers in column A. I also have a column of serial numbers in the Log Sheet, column A.
I'm looking for a conditional format whereas I enter numbers into column A on the Log sheet it will auto highlight the cell if I duplicate a serial number from row A in the Service Data sheet. I would like it to highlight the Duplicated number on the Log sheet. I know new versions of excel make it easier to do this but unfortunately I have Excel 2003.
I administer an excel spread sheet which over the years I have added bits of code to which now generates our weekly roster sheets and our daily duty sheets. Sheet 1 is the weekly roster and sheets 2 to 8 are the daily sheets. If an employee is on leave or sick for the coming week the value S or L is entered in to Column B on each daily sheet and when the roster is processed for printing it strikes through the names of the employees for each day that they are off. What I would like to do is then Highlight the name on sheet 1 the weekly roster sheet so at a glance we can see on the main week sheet any issues we may have for the next week. What it needs to do is if the cell in column B contains S or L on sheets 2 to 8 the name which is in column C on these sheets needs to be matched to the name in column D on sheet 1 and this cell highlighted.
This is a conditional formatting problem I have not been able to resolve:
I have a range, say A1:N30
Each cell contains a text/number combination.
I would like to highlight each cell on a specific row if the vale exists within the row above - the issue is that the cell values are not in the same columns.
I have attached a sample workbook with the desired output.
I have a spreadsheet where if Cell A2 says "Deposit", Rows A2-E2 would be formatted with a Blue background.
I've tried conditional formatting, but I can't built it into a Macro (I can't make it run), and it only highlights the cell that has that value. I also tried having the spreadsheet filter down to only the values I want highlighted, then highlighting all cells and un-filtering the column- this didn't work either.
It would basically say :
If (any cell in Row A) has text = "Deposit" (it needs to be exact, it can't be "containing"), set cell with the word "Deposit" and 4 cells to the right as Blue (I'm not picky about the color).
If I wanted to highlight a cell if any cell in the range to the right was greater than zero, what formula would i use. I have tried =IF(L1:AD1>0,1) with the result returning for only the cells in column L. Row 3 has no value in column L but a value in column N with no result to highlight the cell.
Let's assume Cell A2, A3, A4, etc, only contain names/text.
Then let's assume I have set up cell B2, B3, B4, etc, to contain a percentage value based on a formula and some other entries I have made.
It should be simple, but I'm having trouble - how do I set up A2, A3, A4, etc, to highlight into different colours based on Column B's data/percentage falling into a certain range?
ie: - if B2 is between 0% - 25%, then highlight A2 green - if B2 is between 26% - 50%, then highlight A2 orange - if B2 is between 51% - 100%, then highlight A2 red
How can I change the font color or highlight cell A1, when I select cell A2. Cell A2 is still blank, no value entered yet. I also would like cell A1 to return to original font color or no hightlight when cell A2 is no longer selected (active), whether a value is entered or not in cell A2. Let me clearify, (A1 thru N1) and (A3 thru N3) have diferent dates and the font color is white, as is the cell too. Therefor you can not see the dates in (A1 thru N1) or (A3 thru N3).
However, when any cell (A2 thru N2) or (A4 thru N4) is selected (example A4), the cell above it (cell A3) changes font color or highlights, so the date can be seen in (A3). But when cell (A4) is no longer selected the above cell (A3) hides the date (changes back to white font on white cell). Data or a value is not necessarily entered into (A4) for (A3) to change. (A4) is only selected to show the date in (A3). But if data or value is entered into (A4), the date in (A3) will still be seen until (A4) is no longer selected/active.
I am running a time series linear regression on a credit card company. The left most column is the amount of cards they had on a certain year and the prediction is the cards the regression formula predicted. The + and - are the columns added or subtracted the standard error which is 3.25. I am trying to highlight the closest +/- number to the original cards. For example, in the first Row 76.98 is closer to 78 than 83 is so i would like to have 76.98 highlighted...showing that subtracting the standard error gave us the closest prediction. The second column the 87.085 cell should be highlighted because adding the standard error gave us the closest prediction to 86.4.
I have a spreadsheet that records "Audit Date" in column C & "Audit Due Date" in column D. "Audit Due Date" is always 2 years from "Audit Date". I think I learnt the correct forumla to use =EDATE(C2,24). What I would like Excel to do is to highlight "Audit Due Date":
Red: If the audit was completed 1.5 years+ Amber: If the audit was completed between 1 & 1.5 years Green: If the audit was completed less than 1 year The colour key will show me which audits need chasing.
whenever the active cell is within a given range, highlight the cell on the same row in column S (by changing its interior colour). This should occur each time the active cell is changed, whether by cursor keys or mouse. The effect would be similar to the row and column highlights at left and top of the worksheet.
This action should be restricted to one sheet in the workbook.
Basically, I want to have a VBA coding so that it will highlight Column A to I in red If Column C Contain the word "Direct".
I'm currently using this code but it only highlight If the cell = "Direct". If the cell contains "Direct + something else" or "Something else + Direct" it does not highlight.
i have got a spredsheet, with clients names on it and in cell Q i have the clients account number, when iam looking at the clients name i also want to see the number, is there any way to highlight the cell i am on.
What i mean isusing the arrows keys i want to make the row highlighted, is there a way to do this
I have a file in which I Concatenate the cell values like A1, B1, C1 and this vlookup of this concatenated value to the another range where same concatenate is used.
what I want to do is:
highlight the cell which is different in two concatenates.
For ex. VLOOKUP CONCATENATE Value 1 Value 2
Value 3
CONCATENATE Value 1 Value 2
[code].....
As you can see, in the above example I want to highlight the cell value which is different in two concatenates.
I want to do it evaluate each row and if the last value for that row is X, then highlight that cell and the Server name for that row.
I have used conditional formatting but it seems that I cannot specify an option to look at the last cell in a row, evaluate that cell's value and then apply the formatting. I can only have conditional formatting highlight every cell in that row that matches the condition.
I only want the last cell, which represents the most current data, to be highlighted, as well as the category name, if the condition is met.
Just "upgraded" my Excel to the 2007 version. In the old Excel, I could superscript part of a cell by highlighting the part I want, then going to "Format" and "Superscript."
In Excel 2007, it doesn't work. Yes, I can highlight the part of the cell I want to superscript, I can right-click and select "format" and "Superscript", and it even then shows as superscripted in the cell. That is, until I hit enter or move to a new cell. Then the superscript is no longer there. The cell is in "general" number format.
By the way, it did work in another cell: mg/l3 (3 superscripted) works. 742 (2 superscripted) doesn't work.
I am new to excel and have to create a comparison chart that shows the lowest cell result in each row ie
23 25 28 13 42 16 13 21 34 25 17 21 23 17
I will have 36 rows by 20 columns I also need the lowest in each row to appear at the end of the row in the total column. I would like to highlight the cell by a cell colour rather than text colour.
I don't know if this can be done but I will ask you guys anyway
On the attached, you will see what I want to happen
If a user enters text into row "T" that contains "QIN" can conditional formatting highlight the cell in row N a solid colour if no numbers have been entered? As a reminder to users..
I have a macro that already works well but I need to make a change to it and I can't figure out how to do it.
I need so when the macro is run it will prompt the user for a date. After they enter the date it will highlight cells A:K on each row that data appers.
A little background for this. It is a schedule for a call centre which can show two to three weeks of schedules per agent. We rerun the macro each day to update break times and I would like it so it will highlight todays line.
How can i highlight cell "TE001 in 6/19/14" to red color if it duplicate value within the same day, but will not highlight cell "TE001 in 6/20/14" if not in the same day...
If I click or maybe double-click on a cell I would like the cell colour to change to lets say yellow. However, I would like all matching cells to change colour too.
So from my example above if I clicked on C13 "3 TIMER" then C13 would change to yellow as well as C14 - C17 - C18 - C19
I would like my function to highlight the cell that is different. I will be comparing 3 cells which should have the same value. What I would like to have happen though is to have the function highlight the cell that is different from the 3.
Public Function Balance(A As Range, B As Range, C As Range) If (Abs(A - B)
i have a loop which runs through column A and column B and if the value of column A is less than the corresponding value(same row index) of column B, then i need to highlight both the cells...
