I've got spreadsheet with lots of data in and the most important data is located in column C which determines the colour of that whole row. The numbers in that column are 9 digits (i.e. 180041960). If that number is the same in the next row highlight both rows of filled cells in yellow and continue to highlight in same colour until the number changes. As the next number is different leave colour as it is until the number changes again then go back to yellow and change colour of rows. Continue the procces until end of spreadsheet.
I'm recording a macro, so a line in my graph is a specific green. The marker fill won't retain the green, it always ends up blue. the lines and marker line is green. no matter what color I try the marker fill will always be blue. How to correct this?
I have the below macro (kindly provide by VoG) which compares rows of data from columns H-P, excluding M, where two rows match across the criteria, the macro takes the first of these matches and copies to sheet2, where there is no match it copies each entry to sheet 3. It works fine except for 1 thing, the data that I am comparing comes in 2 types of rows, coloured yellow and green (color codes 36, 35 in Excel 2003). I would like to add a further condition so that the macro will not match off where 2 yellow or green rows appear together and where a yellow and green row match it will take copy the yellow row to sheet 2 regardless of whether the yellow or green appear first in sequence.
Sub Cmpare() Dim i As Long, LR As Long, j As Long, k As Long Dim ws1 As Worksheet, ws2 As Worksheet, ws3 As Worksheet Set ws1 = ActiveSheet Set ws2 = Sheets.Add 'matches Set ws3 = Sheets.Add 'non-matches j = 1 k = 1 With ws1 LR = .Range("H" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row For i = 2 To LR Step 2 Retry:
If .Range("H" & i).Value = .Range("H" & i + 1).Value And _ Abs(.Range("I" & i).Value - .Range("I" & i + 1).Value)
I'm creating a worksheet which tracks pupils progress in our school. down the left there is a column to put in the level they came into our school on - eg 1C or 3B etc.. to the right of the level is a colour coded row which shows Pink, Yellow and Green - if the pupil makes it into the green part of their level by the time they leave then they are on target.
Basically I have a column of cells which use a data validation list which is linked to another sheet with a list of levels. What I want to happen is when I select the level - it fills the row to the right with the correct colours.. I've attached a picture to show you what i'm trying to do.
Reason being is - we might have 6 kids on L3, and 1 on L1 so the number of rows needed for each level changes - at the moment I'm having to copy and paste - which although is easy enough, it is a bit tedious when you have a whole bunch of pupils to put on the grid.
I can't find the option in imageshack to use a thumbnail
I have developed a profit loss sheet for the office I work for. What i need is to have either cells change colour or the numbers in the cell change colour depening on the value in the cell.
What I was thinking is if the number is over 15% of the sale price the cell or number should be green, if the number is under 15% it should be black, and if its below 0% it will be red.
I am using Excel 2007. One of my worksheets has a dark border around some cells. Instead of being blue the lines are black. I used the right click and format cells option but it does not work.
I have this code but is not working, i need to make an ajustment to this as well as at present it will only change colour to 1 cell but i need it to format the whole line, this is what i have so far
I dont have that great knowledge in Excel but i wanted to try and run a macro in an IF formula but realised that was not possible. I have now got a formula that gives a value in a cell when i want the whole row to turn to red, but im not sure how i can get a macro that will change the whole row to red when that cell shows a value. Can anyone help on this matter?
I am tyring to do conditional formatting whereby if anything is entered in a cell i want the colour to change to say yellow and if nothing is entered just to leave blank.
I'm looking for some code to change a cell's fill colour
eg. by selecting an individual cell in a range, say A1, the colour of a cell, say K1, in a corresponding range changes to yellow or if I select multiple cells, say A1:A9, the colour of cells K1:K9 change to yellow
I have been trying to make it so that an autoshape changes colour according to the value of a particular cell but every time I run the macro the shape is black and I cannot work out why. The code is -
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Dim X As Integer X = Range("H5").Value With Sheets("Sheet 1").Shapes("Rectangle 1").Select Select Case X Case Is > 0: Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.ForeColor.RGB = 2 Case Is < 0: Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.ForeColor.RGB = 3 Case Else: Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.ForeColor.RGB = 1 End Select End With UserForm2.Hide End Sub
The company I work for has its own set of standard colours to be used in all documents. I've set the colours up in the colour palette using the below sub (x's are actually numbers):
I want to distribute this round to my workmates. Problem is that, if they set the colours in the workbook using the above sub, the workbook colours will be all wrong when clients open them on their computer. How do I get around this. I have thought about programmatically copying the sub into the open event of the activeworkbook. I've looked through this website, http://www.cpearson.com/excel/vbe.htm, but it doesn't explain how to copy code to the workbook events part of a vba project, only to a new module
I want to change the back ground colour of each row until G column when there is a text in the first cell. I have attached the excel that I want the background colour to be. Like suppose, F1 is the details of family 1, F2 is for family 2. I want each family to be coloured. The rows are not fixed for each family. If F1 details are coloured green, Fr is orange, F3 is green and F4 is orange again. And the number F1, F2, F3, F4 and so on are not ordered in ascending. They can be random. But I want the colour coding to be the same as what I have shown in the excel. I have so many rows like that. How do I do that using excel. I have tried conditional formatting. But it doesn't work.
I need to see easily if my cell is giving a value by using a SUM. This is so I can see if the SUM has been taken off or overridden by typing in a number.
I'm creating a simple spreadsheet totalling units of alcohol up. Is it possible to change the colour of the fornt when different values are reached? For example if a total of under 8 units is reached this is displayed in green, if over 8 the figure is shown in red.
I am using the following code to amend the colour of a cell when a name is entered in ROW J however, i need it to colour the row from A to O on the line the name is entered on.
So for example Dave is in j2 (j1 is a header) the line from A2 to o2 goes green.
I have tried a few things with interesting results but not get desired result.
a button to run a macro but i don't like the standard plain grey buttons that excel offers. i saw a friend using one in his project but don't want to ask him how he did it as it would be considered copying. i will add an image to explain my specifications. there must be an easier way than having to design it and you vba to code the colour change.
I'm attempting to write a code that will change the colour of a series in a chart based on the name of each series. i.e. I have Roads, Water and Rail as three of my series names. can i somehow assign the colours yellow, blue and red to these series using macro code.
How I can change the background colour of cell C:2 depending on what other cell i click? Below a sample of the code im using Basically when i click B:2 i want C:2 to turn grey with the text on top.... Then when i click B:4 i want C:2 to turn Red.....
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range) Select Case Target.Address Case Is = "$B$2" Range("D2").Value = "No action needed connector is down" 'change this to suit Case Is = "$B$3"
I would like to have the colour of a cell change within a spreadsheet anytime that a change has been made. I have used the worksheet_change function to change any text that has changed in a cell, however I would like to have the actual cell colour change if someone deletes anything from that cell. I figured that I could use the worksheet_change function for that as well however it is not working.
