How To Conditional Format Data In One Table Based On Values From Another
Aug 12, 2014
how to conditionally format the data in one table based on the criteria specified in another table on a different worksheet.
The Table I'm trying to format has a series of Products and Volumes that'll be available on different dates. Table 1.jpg
The Criteria table has each product and a corresponding Key Data. Table 2.jpg
All I want to be able to do is have the cell corresponding to the criteria to be highlighted but can't for the life of me figure out how to do it. If it makes a difference I'm working offAttachment 338501 a Mac. Excel Version 2011 14.4.3
Sheet "A" has a column called "FILEPATH" that contains the complete path to a file (eg. "C:mystuffdocumentsdocA.pdf"). There are about 3500 rows of filepaths on this sheet.
Sheet "B" has a column called "DELETED FILES" that contains a list of deleted filenames (eg. docA.pdf, docC.pdf, etc.), one filename in each cell.
I want to highlight the rows on Sheet "A" that contain a path to a file that is listed as deleted on Sheet "B".
Is it possible to format a row of cells (B7:KX7) depending on the value in column (G7:G1000) changing?
For example column G might have the following value entered into them.
A A A B B B C C C
So all the rows containing the letter A would be formatted one colour, then it would notice it changed to B and format all the rows with the letter B in, then C etc... The letters would always appear in blocks of 10 or more (representing students in a group) so it wouldn't go A,B,A,B,C,D,E
I am not bothered about the letter being tied to a certain colour, it just needs to change when the letter changes. I'd have no more than 10 different variables in this column, meaning no more than 10 different colours to format. Formatting would be black text with different coloured backgrounds.
I have a pivot table and next to it I added some calculations which are based on data from the table. In my "real" file, the cells next to the PT are formatted with conditional formatting based on other values in the sheet (see attached sample file). What I now need to do is add borders to the cells in columns “D:G” only if the cells in “B5” and downwards are not empty. I have tried doing it with conditional formatting but there are some other rules which contradict this setting.
The idea is to make the cells in columns “D:G” look like they are a natural extension on the PT. However, the table can grow or shrink (in length) and I want to see borders only around cells that are on the same rows as the data in column “B” (staring with B5). I think that whatever solution you can provide (if you can...) should be based a workbook_change event, because in my “real” file, the length of the table is changed whenever I select a different “page” of the PT.
vba in excel 2013 pivot table that updates from an online CRM rows are a to h and it can be any number of rows. What I am trying to do is track progress. In column f values indicate probability for success 10 25 45 90, which can go up or down. The pivot table is refreshed to get the latest values from CRM. the update is handled by a connection to the crm not in the vba.
So far I been researching methods to conditionally format values that went up, down or remained the same since the last refresh with up down and across arrows. I have managed to piece together what I think should work but alas it is not. So I have come to you internet.
My code first clears any formatting and goes down the column avoiding null or empty cells, comparing the values in column f to values in column j. I have 3 conditions greater than, less than or equal to, and would like add an icon for each based on the result of the comparison.
Finally when it finishes the column the code copies the current values in the pivot table column f to column j outside the pivot table which i hope to be able to hide once the cf works. The code is below
Is it possible to change the format of cell AI3 based on the format of cell C3 and D3? I have C3 and D3 set to turn red based on what is in cell C2 and D2. I would like the following done:
If AI3=C3 & C3 is red, format AI3 blue If AI3=D3 & D3 is red, format AI3 blue Otherwise, leave AI3 unformatted.
I have lot of data in three columns like this. The first column is "Name", the second is "Comment" wherein I want the macro to write some comment, the third one is DOB. The problem is that the names in column 1 repeats many times. I want a macro to write in column B "either Old or Older or Oldest" based on the Name and DOB. Thus David with DOB 13 Sep 1982 be marked Oldest in Column B and David with DOB 25 Aug 1988 be marked Older and David with DOB 24 May 1990 be marked Old. Similarly William and Rita should be marked either old or older or oldest. As the data are enormous I do not want to refer the actual name in the programming. I want to call them using a variable in programming.
NameComment DOB David 25 August 1988 David 13 September 1982 David 24 May 1990 William 24 March 1980 William 25 July 1987 William 13 August 1989 Rita 17 July 1990 Rita 24 April 1989 Rita 13 June 1988 The example file is attached
I just want to know whether is it possible to condional format multiple cells based on multiple cell values.
Eg: In the attached sheet,when a driver is standby and the vehicle no column should be empty,if accidently a data entry is done in vehicle no column it should highlight the whole area (ie,from A3 to E3).
I'm having issues with Excel's 2010 conditional formatting. Seems easy to use, but I'm trying to highlight values based on 2 columns of numerical data. Example:
Column F: 6 6 14
Column L: 3 NA 17
I would like Column L to highlight values that are greater than Column F in green. If they are less than Column L then highlight them in red.
Seems I was able to do this with Excel 2003, but I don't understand the 2010 version.
I have five fields that have a conditional format applied to them: (see attached). Columns J, K, L, N and O. These conditionals highlight if a minimum number is entered. Ex. Minimum pushups for a 30 y/o male is 27, if a 26 is entered it highlights red. The total score (where I need this to perform) is calculated in column Q. It will format red if the total score is below 75 but what I can't figure out is how to make it format if any of the previous minimums have not been met.
Ex. In cell L4, his crunches were 25 (a automatic failure -- red formatting). Now the total score is above 75 so it calculates as passing (green), but I need it to highlight red regardless because of the minimum not met in cell L4.
I have a long list of users and the hours they have accumulated over the past year of use. I have used a Conditional Format to find the top 10 users. I want to create a chart of just those 10 users so I was hoping there is a way to pull the value and cell of the users name by only pulling the cell values that show up in green.
Is there a way to have excel basically find the formatted cells and list the values? Or are there other ways to list just the top 10? These top 10 users is dynamic and can change throughout the year so the top 10 now, may not be the top 10 tomorrow.
Here is my entire excel spreadsheet... its to hard to split up since there is so much data being pulled from the HoursChart for the year tab.
Top 10 users.xlsx
Click on "Top 10 users" Tab, there you can see I have all the users listed and their hours from the sheet prior. I also have a condtional format in place on hte values.... I need a way to either pull those values into another cell or I need to chart only the cells that have the conditional format... however I need the names and the departments along with them.
Is it possible to apply a Conditional Format to the MAX Value in each Column and color the appropriate Name in ONE SHOT !? What I mean is - selecting range A2:D9 and applying a C.F. I managed to achieve that by applying two different Conditional Formats. Three separate conditions for Col. A and one condition for the remaining 3 columns (B,C,D).
Cell D8 contains many different account codes. When entering into this sheet, if D8 is filled using account code 4010.12, 4010.17, or 1190.1000, then I want Cell J8 to turn a different color, flagging that cell so they know they have to fill that cell in J8, otherwise that cell will remain blank.
I want to be able to change the font color of the numbers in a column based on even or odd. I selected the columns and formated them to all be blue... thats the color I want for even, but now I can't figure out how to set a condition that checks for odd numbers and changes them to red. I now have a count of even/odd for all records, and even/odd for the last 30, this provided some very interesting results.
i have a spreadsheet which is used to keep the training records for the company it counts no of staff and their skill levels for different parts of the job, when a person moves to a different branch the skill required changes and they have a set period of time to aquire the new skill.
when the time is up the colour of the old skill is changed to a red font by a conditional format based on the date.this is then counted by a calculation so the team know how many people are to be targeted for extra training.
the problem i have is the calculation will not count conditionally formated cells, so whenever i update the sheet i have to go to each cell with red text and change the font colour manually to red, this sounds really silly and is impossible to explain to anyone who does not understand conditional formatting. i e the people who will end up using the database
what im looking for is a way to count conditionally formatted cells based on the condition being met i.e. they are showing as red font.
I have a row of cells pertaining to jobs B3 across to I3.
In B3, C3, D3, E3 the value entered is text. In F3, G3, H3, I3 the value entered is time.
What I am trying to do is to change the Background colour to Red on cells F3, G3, H3, I3 if either H3 or I3 or are empty at the end of the current day but only if there is some text in any or all of the cells B3 - E3
So for example if H3 or I3 have no time put in them by 23:59 today, when the workbook is opened tomorrow the cells background colour will turn red.
Not sure if this if poossible or not? hopefully I have explained it well enough but if not pease let me know.
I have the following code. I am trying to conditional format a row based on the value of the A column of the row.I have a total of 3 rows. I have to use VBA because in time I may have 4 rows of data. The problem is I after the first do while loop the code stops and the code doesn't proceed to format row 2.
Im having some issues with some code Im working on. My goal is to delete the rows that do not have conditions met. Conditional formatting is used in 6 columns of my spreadsheet and the cell fill is to turn red when below .50 . This code is shown below. What I need to do now is look at the 6 columns where the conditions are applied, and delete any rows where the column cells are not red. To further clarify, if in row 1 column X:X does not meet criteria, but column AL:AL does, the row would not be deleted. However if none of the columns meet the criteria, the entire row is deleted.
With the click of a toolbar button, I've got my vba inserting a new tab, renaming it, inserting headers and now working on the code to insert all the formulas needed in 12 columns to copy down as far as there is data.
The 4th column D is the hardest. Currently, I'm using manual "Conditional Formatting" to colorize the cells in Col D but need the VBA to place that "Conditional Formatting" code into the sheet so that when the sheet is created, it will hold the conditional formatting feature.
Specifically, the formulas I'm using in the Conditional format wizard are:
Formula: =$B2$D2 then turn the cell red Applies to: =$D$2:D
Copy down (in other words, the colorizing should work all the way down Column D as long as there is data in Col D.
I have a spreadsheet with due dates in column X. I want to create conditional formatting so that cells turn red when the due date is less than or equal to 30 days away, but turn gray when the due date has passed.
I've accomplished the first step by using the following: =AND($X6
I'm afraid as its a multiple conditional format and thus needs coding. At the moment I'm using the following
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) ' Conditional Formatting for more than 3 conditions Dim rng As Range ' Target is a range::therefore,it can be more than one cell ' For example,,someone could delete the contents of a range, ' or someone could enter an array.. Set rng = Intersect(Target, Range("E27:E34,G27:G34,I27:I34,K27:K34,M27:M34,O27:O34,Q27:Q34,S27:S34,U27:U34,W27:W34,Y27:Y34,AA27:AA34"))
If rng Is Nothing Then Exit Sub Else.....................
This works very nicely, so that for example if I type the number 10 into cell M33, that cells fill colour becomes black (and the text turns white). Alas I would now also like to extend the fill and text colour to the cell one to the left too. To take this example I would type 10 into cell M33 and cells L33 and M33 would both be filled black and their text would be white. I'm not sure if this requires a change to the code, or if its possible to just have a formula or something which copies the fomatting of one cell into another
I want to create a conditional format formula which is based on values in 2 cells.
Example:
Cell B1 = 100 Cell C1 = 50
I want a formule for cell A1 which turns red for exmaple when B1 is higher then 85 and Cell C1 is lower then 85. Only in this case the conditional format should work.
I have a monthly calender, with each month on its own sheet. I have a sheet named Holidays, which list the holidays. I have been able to use conditional format and highlight the dates in the months the holidays fall on, but I would like to highlight a range of cells below the date on monthly sheet. I have attached a sample of what I have and would like to achieve. I am not much good at using VBA, but would not be against using it either.
I have a spreadsheet that requires me to manually hunt down records that match based on several different criteria. this is very time consuming and inefficient. i would like to find a way to highlight certain records that match based on several different fields. i have posted an example spreadsheet that also has a more detailed description of what i am trying to do; which is located in the second sheet.
