I would like to know if it’s possible to make Excelhighlight a cell dependent on another cells Time. Here is the link to thespreadsheet I have created. [URL] WhatI would like is cells with the times above them (G5 through AJ5) to automaticallyhighlight dependent on the time in the cells (C6 and D6) I highlighted the cellyellow to show what I mean. T
I wrote a macro that worked for a long time but now a running time error (9) popped out even though the code didn't change at all. If I run the same macro on the same computer but logged on as a different user it runs smoothly. Tried it in other computers and in some of them it will also run in only some of the users but not all.
I'm running Excel 2003 on windows XP, on a pentium 4 PC but found the same in othe computers running Vista.
When I click the debug button the highlighted line is Workbooks("Detrend").Activate close to the end of the following code.
I have got this macro working OK but now I need to add a 2 letter prefix/suffix depending on what time it was created (am or pm). Detail: If the sheet is created between 0600hrs and 1800hrs then "DS" and likewise between 1800hrs and 0600hrs then "NS". Outcome: The sheet will then have a name like - "22 Mar DS"...code included below
i have just read the thread started by scabertrain regarding "if" conditonal formating, but mines slightly different and i cant make head nor tale of the fomula shown.
So... Monthly budgeting... using a projected outgoing (A1) and an actual outgoing (A2) i want the colour "A2" to change depending on whether i have spent over the budgeted amount, green being underspent, orange for on target and red for over spending....
Example:
I predicted (A1) that i was going to spend £50 on a night out, but my actual spending (A2) was £100, i would like A2 to turn to red.
How to write one (apart from relying on tutorials). I have written the following and got stuck

My spreadsheet consist of 3 rows of numbers for every sample, and I want to highlight with grey every three rows at a time to tell one apart from another. With the current strings I can only highlight one row, how to expand the selection?
i have a spreadsheet with different customer names. I want to highlight a row every time a customer name changes. For example: ABC, DEF , i want to highlight where abc ends . Normally i use subtotals, then group them by rows then select visible cells then i highlight every different customer. The problem is that since it is a huge sheet, it takes 30 minutes to do the subtotals. I am not sure if conditional formatting can do this.
Situation: I have two drop down lists 1) Country and 2) States/province
Country has list: [US, Canada]
If "US" is selected, [Arizona ,Florida, NewYork] is listed in the 2nd drop down list If "Canada" is selected, [Alberta, Ontario, Quebec] is listed in the 2nd drop down list
Scenario: First, I select "US" and choose the states to "Florida" Next I change the country to "Canada" and forgot to choose province Then, the 2nd dropdown list is changed to [Alberta, Ontario, Quebec], BUT the current value is still "Florida"
Probem: Now I have "Canada" and "Florida" selected in the sheet
Question: If the primary list is changed, can I make the 2nd drop down list to show a default value (e.g. blank or the first entry i.e. Alberta)?
I have two columns with correlating data. i created a validation drop down list and would like the corresponding number to populate a cell based on the drop down list selection. i.e....
I have a spreadsheet that I'm trying to fill with data. There's a lot going on in the sheet, but 1 really useful thing I could incorporate is a running count.
Explanation: I have about 2000 rows of data at the moment.
A row would be finished if it's column J,K,L,M,N & O have data (text) in ALL of them; IE 6 cells of data in order for it to be complete.
So, a running total. If say 200 rows have data in J to O (all 6 cells) the count would show 200. My rows of data start from Row 5. I'd like to add the formula to cell N2.
I have a workbook that has a number of sheets with various project stages and dates on them. These details are arranged in small tables displayed vertically down the page. Each worksheet's name is the project code - e.g. 30033_99
I have now been asked to create an overview page that displays all these stages and dates on one page. What I'm trying to do is get Excel to look at the column with the project code and then pull information from the worksheet with that name.
I have a workbook with about 30 tabs in it. It is currently protected by a password. The workbook itself has a couple of 1000 formulas across the tabs.
What I would like to do is to lock certain cells on each worksheet depending upon if the workbook is opened as "read only" or "in edit mode" (when someone uses the password).
So when someone uses the correct password, I would still like certain cells to be locked, or after the initial password is entered for editing, another popup box with "would you like to edit cell formulas? Y/N (only on selective cells), if no, then no editing on those cells allowed, if yes, then prompted to input another password to do this.
I have some 82,875 rows of data in column A is a string, in column B is a timestamp sorted in order.
I would like to run a macro that counts the first 80 of the same timestamp and highlights the remainder, doing this for every timestamp.
The timestamp is in the following format; Feb 16 15:33:02 +0000 2014
So for example you would take the first 80 with this timestamp and highlight the rest with that timestamp, and do the same for all other unique timestamps.
I have one sheet that uses a very simple formula for copying certain values from one cell to another sheet “=VALUE(Sheet1!B5)”.
My problem is that rows have to be deleted in sheet1 as the information eventually becomes expired and the following is displayed in my cell in sheet 2 “=VALUE (Sheet1!#REF!)” Is there a work round this, to prevent the formula showing a #REF! Value.
Row 5 is replaced and the same formula has to be re-entered. Excel 97 used in our office unfortunately.
Sheet 2 is a copy of sheet 1 taken on a particular date.
Sheet 3 is information extracted from Sheet 1.
On sheet 3 what I need to do is change the font colour of a cell to red if the information it contains in relation to Sheet 2 is different i.e Sheet 1 cell and Sheet 2 cell are different
For example
Sheet 1 cell value = Deb Sheet 3 cell value = Deb Copy of sheet 1 taken to create sheet 2 on a certain date Sheet 1 cell value changes to = Bed Need Sheet 3 cell to change to = Bed as it is different from sheet 2
I did try conditional formatting but it will not work with info. from another worksheet that I can see. Maybe someone out there has another solution.
Now he has another task that I am not having any success with. He has asked if we can make an Excel spreadsheet that allows us to access a list of customer units from a drop down menu which is in another workbook, and once you choose that particular unit, another drop down menu will allow only those customers who are assigned to that unit to be selected from that sub-menu. I hope that makes sense.
Say customer A1 (we will call him Delta Co, 2-1 Aviation) is selected from this first drop down menu (which I haven't figured out how to make yet either). Then this selection would access another worksheet in that other workbook with a new drop down menu with only the four customers in that unit. As an example we will use the names SSG Wilson, SGT Jackson, SFC Jones, and SGT Phillips.
So when the Supply Tech here opens the spreadsheet, the first drop down menu, he will select Delta Co, 2-1 Aviation. Then the next menu will only show four names, and he will select SFC Jones.
Once we get this going, I may be able to figure out the other things the commander wants, if not I will be back.
I am looking for a macros to lock a cells dependent on another's value.
I have a spread sheet for quote numbers I don't want the employees to take a quote number (A) unless all cells have been completed in cells (C-K).
however there is another condition within this where if cell K says yes then lock Cells N O and P, however if it says No these cell must also be completed to take a quote number.
I have also added a macro to force enable macro with a welcome page and a macro to log the user name date and time of entry, I don't want to loose this it seems each time I try a macro for the locking cells or data validation it disables these macros.
I have a sheet which autofilters according to a validation list in cell E2 using the code.
I have then used subtotal arrays to calculate the mean, median, max, min and total count for whichever values the filter shows.
What I want to do next is have a code which will select each possible option from the validation list (triggering the autofilter) and copy and paste the values from each dependent formula into a new sheet.
How to colour cells depending on text in other cells, for example,
I would like cells D26:AA26 to turn light red if the letters 'FSM' are in cell 'E26' even if other text appears in it, eg 'SA+/FSM' I have been playing about with conditional formatting but can seem to solve the mixed text issue?
I am trying to write a macro which highlights all the cells with any reference to other cell. The macro should highlight a cell with formula like = 3 * A25 but not highlight a cell with following formula. = 3 * 0.4535566. 'Hasformula' property is not useful here as it can't distinguish between above examples.
I have data in cells that are separated by pipe characters. What I need to do is to highlight the cells that are not the same. For instance, if a cell contains xxx|xxx then the cell is not highlighted but if a cell contains mmm|mmm|xx then the cell needs to be highlighted.
Sheet1 Â A1xxx|xxx2rrr|rrr|rrr3ttt|ppp4OO|OO|OOO5zz|zz|zz|tz6aaaaa|aaaaa7jj|jj|jj|jj|jj|jj8yy|yy9ww|tf|mz
I have a workbook and trying to copy all the way down the workbook using F4 blanks etc. When I highlight the column I want to fill in its not highlighting all the cells.
