Is there any way in Excel that i can highlight in different colours the area between the variable and benchmarks? I want to fill the area say as green when the variable performed better than benchmark (area between the variable line and benchmark line) and as red if variable under performed than benchmark (area between benchmark and variable.
I'm trying to get excel to automatically highlight dates on my calendar that fall between a number of given dates, but this is causing some issues.
First of all excel doesn't support conditional formatting between dates, and second I can't copy conditional formatting rules to apply to another cell easily.
It would be possible to manually set up rules for all 365 days of a year, but I was hoping to use a formula that can do this automatically.
I found a formula that uses median that is quite clever, but I haven't found a way to apply it to a part of the calendar or the entire calendar for that matter.
This formula does a neat job for a single date, but it would be nice if it would work for an entire month.
=IF(F5=MEDIAN(F5,Bookings!D3:Bookings!E3),"Yes","No")
I am working on closeouts and I would like the late due dates to be highlighted in three ways: past 30 days, past 60 days, and past 90 days. Also, I would like the highlighted to be disappear when the form is sent..

=AND(A1-DATE(2010,3,1)>=0,A1-DATE(2010,3,1)
In sheet1, i wan to enter a date in cell A2
after i have enter a date, in sheet2 it will search the date entered and bold the cell to red.
*Sheet2 looks like a calender that have all the dates*
In sheet1 i have two dates
Eg. 11/6/2007 - 22/6/2007
In sheet2 is the calendar and I want the period in between these two dates in sheet2 to be highlighted in red.
I've used conditional formatting to highlight dates which are due this week and next week, but now I need to highlight which dates are overdue.
Each row is a task/job.
I have a 'Due Date' column.
I also have a 'Date Completed' column.
How do I highlight the overdue dates based on their due date (not today's date)?
And once I have entered a date in the 'Date Completed' column, I need the overdue highlight to be removed.
I am setting up a Cattle management system in excel 2007. In the column F are the date of births for each individual animal. Example: F2 13/03/2013 F3 23/05/2013. I would then like to highlight the cells with the dates in to find all the cattle that are under the age of 16 months from the current date.

The conditions:
-- If the current (todays) date is 8 working days after the created date, then highlight in orange
-- If the current (todays) date is 10 working days after the created date, then highlight in red
On other words...
-- The dates that will get highlighted in red are overdue for processing
-- The dates that become orange are approaching the overdue time
-- Any dates that are less than 8 working days are NOT highlighted at all
I have columns of dates and I'm looking to automatically highlight dates that are older than 5 business days from today. Is that conditional formatting?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a sheet where i need to highlight cells C3:C140 based on approaching dates. The cells C3:C140 contain dates generated from another file and would be random approaching dates.
The conditions are
1) Approaching Weekends (Sat and Sun) = always turn red
2) 3 days after today = orange
3) 2 days after today = dark orange
4) Other days = light orange
How can I print 2 selected area (highlighted area). I know there is a trick to do that. Right now I can only select (highlight) one area to print, but would like to know how to print 2 or more areas at same time

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to graph the following data in an area chart with line charts superimposed on the area chart. I have a lot of data (and a lot going on) so I'm trying to figure out the best way to show this in excel from a functional standpoing (i can't get this to work in excel!!) to also an asthetic standpoint (dont want it to look terrible or illegible). This is what I'm trying to chart:
1) Weather data (temperature) by region:
So one region, would be: Northwest
I would like the "area" (so a shaded region) to be the min/max of the temperature data for each month.
2) I would like to show the temperature for each year as a line graph on the chart - so you can see if a year falls in or out of the shaded region.
3) I would like to show a company's sales increases across the same months per year as separate line charts. I may choose to just show the biggest outlier year in the end... or to show 2006 (the latest data).
What I am trying to convery with the chart is that the company's sales is or is not tied to weather deviations. I have attached an excel file with the data. I haven't been able to use the area chart or get a two axis chart to work or get it to look even remotely professional.
I have a workbook with multiple sheets that I need to print.
Is there a way to create a fixed print area within which you can mess around with formatting without extending or shrinking the print area?
I have tried adjusting the margins settings so that they are all the same, but this does nothing to keep a fixed print area.
I need formatting to highlight the dates in Column H if they are a greater than a week or more from Column G. Tried some different ways of doing this with the conditional formatting but cannot get it to work yet
View 12 Replies View RelatedAny time that any data is entered into one of the cells within my spreadsheet I would like the cell in which data is entered (and only the cell in which data is entered) to automatically become shaded (gray, preferably). I know conditional formatting should be used, but beyond that, I have no clue what to do. I would also prefer not to have to enter in conditional formatting formulas into all 105 cells, but I will do it if necessary.
Just in case, here's a little more information on what I am doing: I will be sending this spreadsheet out to about 10 others, and when they enter their name on a particular day at a particular time, I want that cell to become shaded. Other people might also enter their names at that day and time as well, so I would want the cell to stay shaded if that happens. Macros are not an option, because of security reasons.
I have a spreadsheet with columns a-v. Column F (titled aging) displays how many days old an issue is. I would like to have a macro that will automatically shade a row light red if the number is less than 90. I don't want the entire row shaded, just the contents of column a-v.

I need to add a Macro/VBA script to a spreadsheet i'm working on which will shade all cells, within a workbook, if the cell contains a formula (eg: =sum(A1:A5))
I can't get it to work under conditional formatting, nor with my limited knowledge of VBA.
I have a work sheet that has a date in a cell B7 and the system Date is Cell AB4.
What I wish for the sheet to do is shade the cell depending on the following criteria: If the date in Cell B7 is 2years and 10 months Before the System date to shade it Green, If the Date is Between 2 years 10 month and 3 Years before the System date shade yellow and if it is 3years and over shade Red.
For example if the date in B7 is 11-12-08 and the system date is 13-01-09 then the cell will be shaded Green.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am fairly new to VBA and I am having some trouble with a VBA routine that was used in some workbooks I was given and I am trying to reuse that code.
What I am attempting to do is to shade the rows (alternate colors) whose value in Column C is the same until that value changes.
Example:
Row 1, 2 & 3 all have the same value in Column C so these would shade color 15
Row 4 thru 10 have a different value in Column C so those would have no shade
Row 11 thu 13 have a different value in Column C so these would then be Shade 15
So here is what I have done:
I set the range for the routine to step thru, then I defined the row & column to start processing. I then compare the current row to the row above. If the values are different then I compared the colors of the rows, and set the active row to the opposite color.
This routine runs but the first cell in each grouping isn't being shaded but then the rest of the rows are shaded correctly.
I have searched the web and look thru my code several times but to no avail, I cannot seem to understand why this will not work.
Code:
Sub grid_coloring()
Dim rwIndex, colindex, colindex2, ncount, bcount As Integer 'set rwindex, colIndex as an output number for columns. bcount and ncount are for counting blanks and dupes
Dim theRng As Range
Dim FirstRow, FirstCol, LastRow, LastCol As Integer
[Code] ..........
In B16:T24 I have cells that need shading depending on what code I put in them. I have 5 codes P, BH, S, ML, HD
I would like the cells to change colour, when I put P in them I want them to change to blue, when I put BH in them I want them to change to green, S I want to change to red and so on.
