I have a sheet that I have item numbers in a column that i want to highlight and change color when they are not the same. I want the colors to be unique to each number. I am currently using conditional formatting (Format cells based on their values (3-color scale)). I works alright but not perfect.

I am using excel 2003 and I am looking for a formula that will highlight duplicate cells and change the cell to red.
Unlike newer versions that have duplicate cells within the formatting tool, appears that 03 doesnt.
Also I am looking for a formula that will highlight blue a date cell when the date arrives.
Excel 2003 > In a given row, I need to change the fill-color of the cell in column C if the user changes any value in columns D through Z. How to? Need a VBA code snippet.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe are currently working on uploading product (XML) to our website, we have some old product data done and now there are some new product sheet came out and we have 30 of them. Between the new and old product sheet, we have to add new products, remove discontinue products and update all the old product's pricing.
First come to first, we need to find out which are the old products and which are the new products. Yes, the manufacture didn't separate the new from the old. I have put together a sample Excel, please see attachment.
I need to compare them and highlight the cells in in GREEN on both columns when they are match.
Column A (Old SKU)
Column B (New SKU)
Column C (New COST)
Column D (New MSRP)
Column E (New SPECIAL PRICE)
Update new pricing from NEW Columns C,D,E to OLD Columns F,G,H when the cells from Column A and B are highlighted
Column F (Old COST)
Column G (Old MSRP)
Column H (Old SPECIAL PRICE)
Can that be done within Excel build in functions?
I have a whole spreadsheet of data which looks confusing so I need to make it look more attractive to the viewer.
I have column A which shows a number of the branch conducting the transaction and the column will contain numerous different branches which I have sorted into branch order.I think there are too many branches to use the conditional formatting condition (probably 5000 different numbers)
What I wish to do is change the colour of the cell when the branch name changes.
For example
Column A= Branch number
123
123
123
345
345
345
456
456
456
789
789
What I need is to highlight all branches 123 with a colour (any colour say red) but when the change in branch number occurs to 345 use a different colour to highlight all the branches (cells) with the number 345 (say grey).Then when the branch changes to 456 use the same colour that highlighted branch 123 (ie red) .Then again when the branch changes to 789 change the colour back to grey again so the spreadsheet shows rows highlighted when a different branch occurs
The above example would look like
Column A
all branches with 123 ( cell highlighted any colour but say red)
branches 345 cells highlighted grey
branches 456 cells highlighted red
branches 789 grey
I am sure that a worksheet change would be the best way to go for this, but I am unsure how to test for this.
I am looking to prevent users from using a select set of colors for highlighting. If the user tries to highlight using one of these invalid colors, I would like to flag a message telling the user that this color is reserved and highlight the selection to the previous color.
The previous color may be a tricky part as I do not know if this can be done.
I looked around at some date functions and could not find one to work.

Is it possible to compare two columns side by side to highlight/change color of difference between the two cells
I need to compare and show the changes to the record from previous version and generate a report which will highlight the changes (Rather than just saying that record has changed It should tell what has changed)
For example if the
Column 1 (Previous Version) :The structure contains Wire, Bolt, Stmaps etc
Column 2 (Current Version) : The structure contains Wire, Bolt, Stamps etc
Data Changed: YES
In report is should show two columns side by side and in Column 2 it should highlight "Stamps"

How do you highlight a row when conditions in two cells of that row are met? For example, I have a spreadsheet with a STATUS column ($A) and a TYPE column ($E). When the status is "open" and the type is "1", I want the row to be green. But when the status changes to "closed" I want the row to be a different color or no color at all. How do I do this?

Dim lColumn As Long

But it is not doing exactly what I want it to, and I am struggling to work out what I need to change to get it to do so.
I want the formula to do is look at a three Columns of data, and to highlight Cells in Column Y when the following criteria are met:
The Row is active (determined by the "Yes" part), that the Row is "Market Specific" and that there is more than one Row where these Criteria are met (this is where I thought COUNTIF would work, but it's not).

.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
Else
.Interior.ColorIndex = 3
End If
End With
End Sub
This works fine, but when i press the button again it clears the highlighted cells back to normal but any highlighted text etc or conditional formatting is deleted
Is there a way of returning to what was there before the first press of the button?
Just incase it is pressed accidently etc, as there will be many rows with the same button

View 9 Replies View RelatedExcel 2003,
I am having an issue with a workbook, when the workbook opens it runs through each sheet and protects it (allowing the user to manipulate unlocked cells). For some reason one sheet will not allow me to do that (in some respect). I can click on a cell, it will show me the formula at the top but the cell wont highlight showing you which one is selected. I have to use the named range box (top left) to see which one is selected.
All the pther sheets work fine. I have checked to make sure that they are not set to Locked (in the cell formatting).
the code that protects the sheets is.......
Sub MyProtect()
For Each ws In Worksheets
ws.Protect
ActiveSheet.EnableSelection = xlUnlockedCells
Next ws
Sheets("Costs").Select
End Sub
