Using excel (i think its 2000, work PC they are behind the times) and i was wondering if there is a way to automatically highlight the active field as i move around the cells.
It would be easier to see where my cursor is.
I am looking for a way to have the active cell row and column (standout). I did have it highlight but as users tried to highlight certain cells the active highlighting of the rows and columns would erase the color. So they are asking for something that can take its place with an on and off button to it.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a cover sheet to a workbook that holds hyperlinks to its relevent page. Several of the hyperlinks link to the same page but different relevant cells. However it is not overly clear which cell is active when you click the hyperlink. What I would like is for the active cell to be highlighted on the page. EG hyperlink 1 links to page 1 cell A2 & hyperlink 2 links to page 1 cell B6 - I would like A2 to be highlighted when accessed by hyperlink 1 & B6 highlighted when accessed by hyperlink 2.
View 9 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to click on a cell in column C, and have the wishlist below happen:
That active cell's row is hightlighted.
Any cell in that column that has the same value as active cell is also highlighted.
Plus, any cell in another sheet that has that value it's row is highlighted too.
Example:
I click on C5 in Sheet 2 its value is 45000789 it row is highlighted, this value also appears in C3 in the same sheet, so it's row is highlighted as well. Plus, in sheet 1 in C10 this value appears and it's row is highlighted as well. When any of the values are clicked again the highlight is removed from all parties.
I am trying to create a VBA code that will automatically highlight the row of an Excel table (2007) of the active cell. So far I have this:
Code:
If Not Intersect(ActiveCell, Range("Table_Name")) Is Nothing Then
Range("A" & Target.Row & ":EJ" & Target.Row).Interior.Color = 10092543
End If
Where the columns A and EJ represent the size of the table. But I would like to automate the column choices so that if the table has columns added or removed, the code still works. Is there a way to just reference a row of a table?
I need a simple macro to use for conditional autofill of cells below the active cell (to the end of the sheet) with the text that is being entered in the active cell.
DESCRIPTION: I have two columns of data, the first (call it Col1), has a word number which is unique to each specific word in a foreign language, every cell in this column has a number in it from 1 to 30000. Each number reoccurs many times in cells over the length of this column.
The other column (call it Col2) is blank. As I type words in english in each cell of this column, I need the macro to autofill the text that I have just entered, into every cell in Col2 where it's Col1 number is a match with the Col1 number where I am typing.
For example, in one row, Col1 has the number "21" and I type in Col2 the word "run". I need the macro to find every row where the number 21 is found in Col1 and automatically enter "run" into Col2 at that location.
The macro must only autofill cells which have no data in them. Preferably from that cell down, although if that is not possible, all cells would work seeing we are only replacing blank cells with data.
I found this spreadsheet on here and I have been trying to customize it to what I need. I am trying to have scores from skins match highlighted. I want only the minimum score to be highlighted but if there is another duplicate minimum score I don't want it to highlight anything. I also need to find a way to count the skins won by each player and have it off to the side.
For those not familiar with golf a Skin is a game where you try to get the lowest amount of strokes on a specific hole. Ex- 4 people play the hole one. P1 scores 4, P2 gets a 3, P3 and P4 get 6. The skin would go to P2 who has the lowest score on that hole.
Highlight lowest number in each column not highlighting if there are duplicates starting at L6 down to L11 and for each column till AC. And the same for the group just to the right on attached file.
On row 13 and 14 it tells me who won a skin. I want to tally up the total skins won by each player. so if Joe's names shows up twice on R14 I want it to tell me somewhere in the sheet Joe = 2
In the following extract, I would like to have today's date placed into Col K when an entry is made into Col J.
Entry into Col J is from a validation list of 3 options. What I desire is that when one of these options is selected ("Complete"), then I would like today's date to be written into Col K.
Currently Col K has a validation list which comprises dates from 1st of each month from July to June.
I need a fixed date as text preferably, so was thinking the VBA function "Date" on a Change Workbook Sub.
The information is currently part of a Table in Excel 2007 that has about 500 records.

I have a macro that imports a report. If the Charge Type in column A is BTOREPLX, I need to prefill the field next to it in column B with the text "REPLX", e.g. "REPLXCDROM". I've attached an example of the report.

I have a range of amounts in Sheet 1 from F7:Q13 and im using the find method to search for the active and non active values in the cell. Which means that if there's a value in the cell it will transfer the value in Sheet 2, if nothing is found in the cell the cells in Sheet 2 will return as nothing or null.
I think the problem lies on the FindWhat variable. Im getting a compiled error which im not sure what is it.
I've attached the spreadsheet so you get a better idea of the problem that i encountered.
I currently have the following macro running to set a chart's data values:
Sub C3Quarter12013()
'
' C3Quarter32013 Macro
'
'
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("Chart 2").Activate
ActiveChart.PlotArea.Select
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Values = _
[Code] ......
When I copy the tab and change some of the data within the cells, I want the macro refer to the chart on the current tab and the values in the current tab - as currently it refers to only "Chart 2" and the values in the tab 'Figure 2 - WE OPH'.
I've tried changing the sheet name to ActiveSheet.name but that doesn't seem to work.

I have a column "A" with a cell for each week's income (A-1 thru A-52).
Is there a way to program these 52 cells so that the cells reflecting the "maximum" and the "minimum" amounts of weekly income, would be automatically highlighted in some way? Of course the "minimum" would have to be able to not use the cells representing the weeks that have not occurred yet. These cells will also need to be able to change automatically as weekly income amounts change.
I am interested in finding out how I can highlight the row I am currently working in? When I move rows, I want the highlighting to move to the appropriate row.

My boss has tasked me to try and highlight each week the major changes from the week before.
The whole spreadsheet is full of vlookups based on a cell - Z3 in this case. Cell Z3 is a week number, and when i change that, everything is updated based on a load of other sheets.
Is there a quick and easy cheatuing way using some code that i can analyse all the changes from what the values were before, to what they are now, and highlight the major movers?
I have created a data base of all the spare parts we have at work.
In the last column I have entered a hyperlinks that take you to a layout of the store and shows you where the part is located i.e. – 1C would take you to shelf ‘1’ level ‘C’ on the drawing in another tab in the same Excel workbook.
I would be pleased if anyone could help me by suggesting away that I can make the destination cell highlighted or more prominent once you have clicked on the link.
Also can I make the Find window automatically appear when the workbook is first opened?
I have a worksheet, the data flows from different columns, like a,b,c and the result is in d column. The entries are spread from 1 to 45 rows. The format of data is five digit number. As I have formatted the cells as "custom" like "00000", the Zero is shown on left side, but when the column is copied/pasted in another column in certain entries zero disappears. Is there any way to get the 4 digit entries, highlighted, so Zero can be added on left side manually directly to the concerned entries, instead of checking each and every entry.
View 4 Replies View RelatedThis problem has been driving me insane, as I thought it wasn't possible to do in excel however this morning I accidentally pressed a shortcut key on my keyboard and what I wanted, happened.. pity I can't remember how I did it.
How do I highlight an entire row, but remains highlighted when i enter info in the cells until i move down to the next cell? Eg. I click on row"1" so that all cells are highlighted, then while entering info in B:1 - the entire row is still highlighted? This will be very useful in my line of work.
I know there was some information on conditioning formatting, but surely there is a way to do it via keyboard shortcut since i accidentally did it just before.

Which is conducting a wildcard search of roughly 15,000 rows of data. It is a wildcard search comprised of street names. So, if a user types "Wood" in ComboBox1, it may return Woodmont, Northwood, or any other combination. Is there a way, when the search results are populated, to highlight only the "wood" (in this case) part of the response?
I can not figure out why only the color index 5 and 8 are working in the example- (1). To tun it say "no" to the initial prompt that comes up and select 1 from the dropdown in A2. Before some additional functionality was added it was called TestBook and that highlighted appropriately.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have attached a sample sheet which is for invigilation of exams. In columns D, E & F are the initials of people invigilating at different times. What I want to able to do is to print personised sheets for each person where there initals are in bold and the box has a black border around it. This is very labour intensive if I do it manually as have to highlight one person, print, unhighlight and rehighlight the next person and so on. What I was wondering is could I use a macro to automate this process. So it has a list of all the initals and it searches through and highlights the person and prints it and then moves onto the next.

This highlight's the row yellow when a cell in that row is clicked, however it only highlights the row when you refresh the page by scrolling off the cell and back again. It just feels a bit flaky.
Is there a way I could loop through a range and when a condition is met highlight the NEXT ROW in a different colour
For example if C10 houses the number 5 then highlight NOT the row with C10 in it but the NEXT row...
I have a spreadsheet that I need to highlight the last row next to the name in column E where the date in column C is 35 days or less than the current date in cell A2.
For eg if there are 10 names containing the name "James" in Column E and the last date in column C (say C20) in line with James is 35 days or less than the current date in A2, then the entire row from A to G for eg A20:F20 must be highlighted in grey.
I need VBA code that will do this for me.
I have attached in sample spreadshhet. In the attached example A14:G14 and A16:G16 must be highlighted in grey
