Colour Object Based On Cell Content?
Mar 22, 2011I have a circle object on an Excel spreadsheet(I used "Insert", "Shapes" to put it there).
I would like to change the colour of the circle object based on the contents of cell A1.
Cell A1 will be "Red", "Yellow" or "Green".
If I type "Green" into cell A1, then I would like the circle object to change to green.
If I type "Yellow" into cell A1, then I would like the circle object to change to yellow....
Setting Colour Of Cell Based On Content
May 3, 2007I have inherited a spreadsheet from someone else that rather cleverly (in my humble opinion) sets the colour dependant on the contents. ie negative value is red, zero is amber and positive is green.
i like the idea and would like to use it on a spreadsheet of my own, but have tried to find out how it is done and can't!
Using Named Cell Content Value In VLookup Formula?
Jun 10, 2013I am trying to reference a named cell in a VLOOKUP formula as the table_array parameter.
The Named Cell "Input1" contains a table array definition of '[Test.xls]Sheet1'!$H$10:$J$100
When I try VLOOKUP($D3,Input1,3,0) - This returns #N/A as a result.
When I try VLOOKUP($D3,INDIRECT(Input1),3,0) - This returns a #REF error.
When I copy and past the contents of the Input1 named cell directly into the VLOOKUP formula, it works so I know the array reference is valid.
I am not proficient in VBA so I would like to accomplish this using basic Excel formulas if possible. how I can reference the named cell and have the cell value returned in the VLOOKUP function?
Find Value & Return Offset Cell Content
Nov 13, 2006I would like to be able to find all cells in row 2 that are "greater than 0". Then I would like to return the coresponding job number in row 4. I need to create a list of each job with the number of hous spent on that job next to it. I may have 30 different jobs but only 5 jobs that have hours for the specific week.
How I attemted to solve this is to create a table that listed all the hours from the largest number in row 2 to the smallest. Then I found the job number corresponding to that number of hours. The problem with this meathod is that if two jobs have the same amount of hours then the first job number is returned for both values that are the same. See attached example.
Return Number Based On Cell Content

Oct 22, 2012I have found this code that, with changes, I can make work with the cells and columns I am using. What I cannot see is how to make more than one cell change colour rather than just the cell in column J.
How can I change the code below to change several cells in the row? I will be using cells in columns A:F.
Data will be entered into the rows from A2 to E2, in F2 a vlookup will enter one of the values, "High", "Medium" etc.
Each of these values has a colour assigned. The code below, with alterations, will be able to colour the cell in F2 depending on which value is entered. I need the whole row from A2 to F2 to be coloured.
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim ChangedRange As Range
Dim r As Long, iCol As Long
Set ChangedRange = Intersect(Target, Columns("F:H"))

Match Cell Content With Another File And Return Value From Next Column Over?
Sep 29, 2013I have two files. They both have US census tract numbers in a column GEOID2010. One also has a CSA2010 text description associated with each census tract.
I need to match the cell with a census tract in the first file (example1).xlsx with the census tracts in the second file (example2.xlsx), and then return the CSA2010 text from the next column over to the first file.
I've attached two example files.
Read Cell Content & ADD Content + Font Properties *SOLVE
Sep 12, 2007I use this to read cell content, add some text/characters (ie. [ and ]) and change the properties of the complete cell
Sub COMMENT()
Worksheets("DVD Lijssie").Activate
If ActiveCell.Value 0 Then ' Change all in to ... ... ...
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = ActiveCell.Value & " " & "]" & " " & "["
With ActiveCell.Font
.Name = "Arial Narrow"
.Size = 8
.ColorIndex = 16
End With
End If
End Sub
HOW can I change this vba-code so it leave's the content of the cell like it is and add some content with the use of let's say TexBox1 and ONLY use different font properties for the newely added content?

Nov 11, 2008i am trying to write some code to analyse a weightlifting movement that occurs 3 times. In particular there is a part of the macro where the user will input the start and end time of the movement using input boxes (to only select relevant data).

Vlookup To Return Blank Cell Instead Of #N/A
Aug 15, 2009is there anyway to have a vlookup formula display a blank cell instead of #N/A if the value it was looking for is not found. For example the first spreadsheet contains the persons name say Bob, the 2nd spreadsheet that the vlookup formula is searching does not contain the name Bob right now excel shows #N/A but what I want it to show is a blank cell. I've tried conditional formating to just white out the text if #N/A appears but can't seem to get that to work.

Is there any way I can have this so when it doesn't find a match, it returns a blank cell, and when it finds a match and there is no value in the return cell, it returns a blank cell as well, rather than 0?

Apr 18, 2014Formula/macro/etc that would enable me to have content of a cell changed based on the content of another cell in the same row.
Example: cell in column D says "PSA" - so I would need the cell in column H for that same row to read "Radio"
I would need an entire sheet scanned to review for these occurrences and make the appropriate changes. I also would need the formula to be inclusive enough to scan for variations in column D cell content (PSA 1, PSA 2, etc).
