This 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.
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
I want to catch an error and reset the entire code to the very beginning and skip that entire entry. When I use "Next fieldSheetName" I get "Next without For," error 1004. Searches tell me I have an open block somewhere, but that's not true. Removing that statement (and having the loop iterate as normal) has no error at all.
Dim employeeName As String Dim fieldMax, x, y As Byte ' Counters mostly Dim workedHours, fieldSheetName As Integer
fieldMax = 204 ' Row number to stop on in the field time sheet row = 4 ' Row specification for field time sheet. Begin at row 4 to ignore headers ' and start on the first name. This should not be changed! Col = 3 ' Start at column 3 then increase by one to start going to next time entry
' RESET HERE! For fieldSheetName = 4 To fieldMax Step 8 ' This is our MAIN loop. It iterates from 0 to fieldMax, which is 204...........
I'm trying to autofill a series of rows (that are blank) with data from an above row. I want to autofill the row in its entirety, not just filling in blank cells.
For instance (assuming comma is a new column). Colors listed are just a data example. Space between commas indicates a blank cell:
So rather than it just completing the task in one desired cell, it would complete the task over the entire spreadsheet. Data spread can be as far as row 500 and column BY, so you can see how a copy + paste or a drag would get monotonous.
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.
I've a large spreadsheet packed full of values, and % variences etc etc
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.
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.
I 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.
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Excel.Range) Application.ScreenUpdating = True End Sub
Conditional formatting rule applied to range.
=CELL("row")=ROW()
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.
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
I have a spreadsheet with one column. For example, it contains
A A A A B B C C C D D
I want to highlight the A's and don't highlight the B's and then highlight the C's and then don't highlight the D's and so on. I want to highlight or not highlight the entire row.
how can I highlight any value that is duplicated within the same sorted value?
Example:
I sort column B so that all the names are in order. In column F I want them to be highlighted when there is duplicate name within the same sorted names of B.
I have a column with yes/no. How would I make it so that it would highlight the row if the value is yes and do nothing if it is no? Would I use a for statement.
i am trying to get a VBA to find the value 'TRCO' select the row and highlight the row in red, i have tried the way below but i get an error saying 'type mismatch'.
If Range("b7", "b51166").Value = "TRCO" Then Rows.Select Selection.Font.ColorIndex = 3 End If
I'm currently writing an automatic report to display information about a store and how it compares to its peers. My company works on a National>Region>Area>Store basis so my report lets a user select a store and the excel file brings back all the data for the relevant national, region and area data for comparison. That works fine.
I now want to develop a set of pages which display data for that store compared to other stores in the same area. For example: [URL]
My report brings back all the stores, ranks them by their performance against target and then puts them in a sorted table using vlookups. I then want to put them into the bar chart shown above, with the store selected highlighted with a different colour. In the example above, the Hunslet store is selected so its bar is highlighted.
Is there any way to make the store highlight automatic? I manually set the colours in the example but I don't want the user to have to do that each time. It would be possible to do using a macro, but I try and avoid them where I can since VBA knowledge is extremely limited in my office.
I have named ranges containing the names and lookup codes for the selected store, area and region .
how I can highlight the rows starting from a specific row based on a date? Like in the attached example I would like to have a formula that highlights the rows (35) all the way down based on the date (B1). I was trying the conditional formatting, but it did not work for me.
Range from AK1:AK8 to AT1:AT8. These are eight rows, total eighty entries. Can a formula or conditional formitting determine if there are duplicates values in eighty entries . The need is not column-based rather row based.
this seems like such a simple thing to do but I just cannot suus it out. Basically I want to Highlight a cell depending on another cells value:
ie. I have a value in Cell A1 and a value in Cell B1, in Cell C1 I have an IF statement that dsplays the word 'NO' if the values in A1 & B1 are not equal. In Cell D1 I have the word Fault. I would like to highlight Cell D1 if the Cell C1 displays the word 'NO'
I run a delivery business & work comes in bit by bit by postcode. I thus enter the postcodes into my spreadsheet.
Then when it comes time to process the work I'm wanting to be able to do something that will highlight all postcodes that match the same colour.
I posted this query on another forum & a helpful guy gave me the code below which worked a charm, but only for a while. Since then I have slightly tweaked the spreadsheet, taken a couple of fields off & added a couple. The code now hardly works or if it does will only do one column or row & not the complete spreadsheet.
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range) Dim oDn As Integer, oAc As Integer, Dn As Range, oPC, nDn As Integer, nAc As Integer, Ac, c, p Dim Rw1 As Range, Rw2 As Range, Rw3 As Range, Rw As Integer If Target.Address(0, 0) = "A1" Then Set Rw1 = Range(Range("E2"), Range("e" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)) Set Rw2 = Range(Range("G2"), Range("G" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)) Set Rw3 = Range(Range("I2"), Range("I" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)) Rw = WorksheetFunction.Max(Rw1.Count, Rw2.Count, Rw3.Count) oPC = Range("E2:I" & Rw + 1)
c = 2
For oAc = 1 To UBound(oPC, 2) For oDn = 1 To UBound(oPC, 1) If Not oAc Mod 2 = 0 Then If c = 25 Then c = 2 c = c + 1
Column A is all random dates . When the date happens on the 1st I need to highlight that row. I'm pretty sure conditional formatting is the way I need to go but have had no luck. The date format is dd/mm/yy.
See attched spreadsheet. I would like excel to highlight the rows where a value (model) = *.* (ie: not a whole number). I think the attached spreadsheet explains it better.
I would like to check column B and if any of these values match values in column J hightlight the cell on the same row as the match on column E green. I don't know much about excel but this would be a tremendous help because i'm looking through quite a bit of data. I've tried using conditional formatting and i can't seem to get that to work for my needs. Let me know if you need anymore information.
I am using a 2007 excel spreadsheet and on parts of it I can't just highlight one horizontal row of cells, it wants to highlight three down. I suppose that I have asked it to do this but I can't for the life of me undo it.
I have tried unmerging cells, cutting and pasting somewhere else, but nothing works.
Can anyone help me please as it's driving me to distraction?
