I have a vertical list where every other cell is coloured grey. The values contained in the list are regularly sorted into alphabetical order with new values being added and other being removed.
Is there a way to keep the cells alternate grey & white after I have sorted them? Currently, when I sort, if a cell is coloured grey and is moved down one cell the colour is moved and not just the values.
I'm sure this will be an easy query.

In each row top 5 MARKS should be filled with BLUE,VIOLET,YELLOW,RED AND PINK
If its not possible. Top 3 with dark colour, remaining 2 with light colour using conditional formatting
The idea came about after wanting to show a 'gold' 'silver' and 'bronze' background colour, but having to plump for yellow, grey and orange looked a little crap :f
If not, can a workaround be created by using code and a picture or 2?
Is it possible to create a formula that looks at a cell (say A20) and if TRUE changes the colour of A22 to green if false to red?
View 9 Replies View RelatedAttached is a table detailing top 20 Incidents and Requests. Requests are highlighted in Yellow and Incidents are in Green. Associated with this table is a graph. What I like to do is if the bar on the graph represents a Request I want the colour to be yellow and if the bar represents an Incident I want it to be green. At the moment I can only choice one colour or a different colour for each bar.
View 4 Replies View RelatedUsing 2007, I need to conditionally format a cell colour based on 5 other cell colours that have been conditionally formatted. The 5 other cells will be coloured either red or greem. What I want to do is have an overall status cell that would be show green if all of the other 5 cells were green, amber if 4 of the other cells were green and one was red and red if 3 or more cells are red.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI wish to count the "number" of numbers in a cell i.e.
Cell A1 has the following data: 12 25 25
This should return 3
Simillarly 4546546545646456 1 2
Should also return 3
I will have data such as the above in a row so i need the count to be able to count a range as opposed to the single cell example above.
Furthermore I need a separate count to count the number or red numbers in a cell. Same parameters as above.
was looking if you could change a row of cells background colour if certain word is inputted elsewhere. in b2:f2 is data- was looking if, could these cells background colour change when yes is entered in G2? does not matter which is used, VBA or con formatting just cant work it out.

I want to make the dark grey columns a light green and the red columns a lets say yellow and the text black. Is this possible??
does anyone know of a way to amend this to add the cell to a range say "All_blue" to then copy and paste special values.

What I need to do is have a cell that will be say yellow until there is information put into this cell. The information could be in the format of text or numbers. The information would not always be the same so it would need to be yellow when there is no information in the cell and another colour or white when there is information in the cell.
View 6 Replies View RelatedThis question about conditional formatting appears to be easy. Lets say I have a column like the following, like I posted somewhere else: (not very relevant for this)
BGW
3UG
WWU
1BR
UUBRG
WUBRG
7UUGGRRR
How do I have all characters in this column be coloured accordingly to:
W = WHITE
U = BLUE
B = BLACK
R = RED
G = GREEN
So that 7UUGGRRR would automatically switch to:
7UUGGRRR
What I already tried:
- I applied conditional formatting to the column (actually, the cells interval, [C2..C8]) creating the rule: 'format only cells that contain -> specific text' -> then I added "U" as the text and told it to colour blue. As I predicted, this didn't work; the entire cell containing a single "U" will get blue, which is unwanted.
I've got 12 months worth of business accounts which have been downloaded onto a single spreadsheet.
These show negative and positive values. As I only want to work on the negative figs at the moment, how do I highlight the colour of the positive value cells or font to prevent any mistakes ?
i am pretty good with VBA after reading a lot of information on the internet but i have a problem i cannot solve:
I have two workbooks with the same sheet names and I am trying to transfer the interior colour of cells from one workbook to the other...
this is the code i came up so far but it doesn't work
With Application.Workbooks(WB1).Worksheets
For Each ws In Application.Workbooks(WB2).Worksheets

I'm creating a project calendar in Excel and for each task I have a Start Date (A) and End Date (B) in adjacent cells. To the right are corresponding date cells like a timeline set up with 52 cells representing weeks of the year. I.e Week 1 (C) starts at 02 Jul 12, Week 2 (D) starts at 09 jul 12 etc. up to 24 Jun 14 (BF).
Start Date
End date
02-Jul-12
09-Jul-12

When a start date and end date are entered in the respective columns, I need to have the color start on the cell for that range in the timeline and that color should carry out to the end date cell in the timeline. A bit like a Gantt chart but not to that detail.
I have a table with a number of columns of data.
Column A cells have a text string that has a number at the start of the line.
The table is constantly adding additional results (rows) every 5 minutes or so.
Can I dynamically identify rows via the number at the start of column A and copy all cells in that row to a different worksheet?
1st - Need a macro to change a range of cells colours based on a single cell having a value greater than 0.001. ie. cells A1 - G1 need to change to grey based on cell F1 having a value greater than 0.001 entered in it?
2nd - Also a macro for deleting the text contents of cell C1 based on cell F1 having a value greater than 0.001. Therefor if cell F1 has a number greater than 0.001 it changes the colour of celss A1 - G1 and also deletes the text in cell C1?

I have a report I produce where I take an XML file, sort it and run some simple formulas then sort another way and run a few more formulas then update a pivot table. The XML files I'm using have the same headers but vary in length. When I set the macro up for a particular XML file everything works fine. When I import another one (different size) I get the error message:
Run-time error ‘1004’:
Sort method of Range class failed
When I look at the code I see that the range is fixed to the XML file I used when setting the macro up. Is there a way to auto-select the table in the macro so I can run the same macro on any size XML?

In the RANK() function I can rank a value depending on one set of values (one condition), but when you SORT data you can choose a second (and a third) condition.

How can I sort two columns of function results using the result value? Excel is trying to sort on the function in the cells rather than the results themselves.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have 3 columns of data: col. A = name (random order), col. B = Net #, Col. C = Gross #.

I am working on a simple employee list with names, phone numbers, employee ID numbers, etc. I have created a VBA form to make new entries or change existing entries. The form has 'next', 'previous', and 'close' command buttons that work well, but I would like to have my data sort by employee name after any of the buttons are clicked.
My data is in worksheet "Employees" with employee names in column A beginning on row 2. Here is what I have entered for the 'Next' command button:
I'm currently working on a problem that I'm having with Hyperlinks. Basically I want to copy the destination data that the hyperlink points to onto another sheet.
The main problem I'm having here is that I cant seem to find a suitable method to do this....I had the idea of using the hyperlink.follow function and then copying the data once I'm there and then moving back to the source hyperlink. My only problem with that is that I dont know how to find the cell address that the hyperlink is in, once I have found that hyperlink.
Therefore my question is two-fold:
- Is there a way to copy the destination data using some sort of hyperlink function?
- If not, is there a way to find the cell address within a worksheet, once a hyperlink is found on that worksheet?
I've attached the spreadsheet below to give a better idea of what Im doing, along with the "findHyperlinks" macro,within that workbook, that I am currently working on.

I need to create a custom function that can do the following without modifying the selected range. If I have data in a row, I need a function that can give me the following result:
Original unsorted data:
79
45
23
56
1
The custom formula will not modify the selected range, and after saving it or copying somewhere and sorting it, it will provide the following result: if N or count(range)=5 , and p=1, average(second and third smallest values of the range)=34; and if N=4 (lets say that we errase the number 1 data point in the range), average(third and fourth smallest values of the range)=67.5 So it is basically a sort and then getting the averages of specified row numbers depending on N or count(range) Here is what I have.
I'm missing how to create a variable with the sorted range and how to use an index to refer to the rows I want to average:
Function CSORT(r, p)
Application.Volatile
'rs or something similar that will contain the sorted range r
Dim rs As Range
'Sort rs (The following line one doesn't work, so I need one that does)
rs = Application.Range(r).Sort
Dim p As Integer
