I have this worksheet, that was created by some one else, that has formulas all over the place. What I want to do is click a button and have all the cells that contain a formula to change the font color to red and fill the cell with a certain color.
I am going to create a userform with one command button. I know the code will go in the command button.
When I do a SEARCH operation to find the number 10 among hundreds of cells containing data, I'm often finding the way Excel highlights the cell that meets the search result is not easy enough to see.
Is there anyway I could setup Excel so that the resulting cell that meets the search result is highlighted in a RED border or RED Fill? I would like the cell that meets the search result to scream at me with a color highlight that is not easy to miss.
Is it possible to search a worksheet that may contain different number of rows (from day to day) and for every instance of a word like "HOLD" is found in column "C" to Color that intire Row Red and also Bold the Row as well?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am currently using this Formula to Search a table on sheet 2 (Tabelle2) and copy the date in the relevent cell (Cells) into the correct cell on Sheet 1 (Master Sheet).
[Code] ..........
Used in cells E10:AZ30 and E33:AZ46
This works perfectly and is the formula behind all relevent cells in Sheet 1.
I would like to keep this but to add that it also copies the background color of the cell in Sheet 2 to the cell in sheet 1.
If i can Bring this Formula into VBA and add the color changing part, It must only work on the cells listed above..
How to determine the correct formula for this requirement?
Assuming I have 2 individual excel files and an index excel file (in reality, there are more than hundreds of file). For index excel, once the user enter part number (eg. 1 or 2), the excel will look for the part number excel file and determine vlookup function.
The only problem I have here is I can not make the index file automatically add the part number shown on most left column into the required formula (replace the part number file section).
I tried use the indirect function but this require each file to be opened, which is not possible for actual use. I am looking for a function that can work in closed worksheet.

I would like to add a value to a cell. The value in this cell will either be 1, 2, 3 or 4.
The value of this cell needs to be "1", if the cell to its left is "Red".
The value of this cell needs to be "2", if the cell to its left is "Purple".
The value of this cell needs to be "3", if the cell to its left is "Green".
The value of this cell needs to be "4", if the cell to its left is "Blue".
I believe I need to find the HEX values for the colors, but that is no problem, I just need the formula of the function if you know it.
I need to conduct keyword searches in excel and color the keywords a different color without changing the font color of the entire cell. now, i found some code from another thread that does this, but i cant seem to get it to work with more than 2 keywords. i need fine-tuning the provided code to do what i need it to do.

Is it possible to reference a cell's colour in a formula within a spreadsheet - without using VBA? i.e If Cell A1 has a fill colour of yellow, can I have a formula in cell A2 that says If Cell A1 fill colour = Yellow, result = 1 etc. I know this can be done in VBA, and I have done that, but just wondered if possible this way.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI get new worksheets on a regular basis which are of the same format (same columns with headers) and I have to perform both vlookups and sumifs on them. Their are about 12 different tabs I perform the vlookup on based a vendor name in A2 and its corresponding tab. I am tired of typing the same thing over and over again.
What I'd like to write is a Control Panel with all the equations so I can just copy/paste them in when I get a new sheet.
How can I write a vlookup which would search for the value which is one cell to the right of where I put the formula in?
Similar to:
=vlookup(current cell over one, 'vendor1sheet'!A:C,3,0).
I would then want to copy it down the worksheet. Currently type in column E everytime I get a new sheet:
=VLOOKUP(F2,'Vendor1'!A:C,3,0)
The catch
Column A has the vendor name, there are about 12 vendors, each with a different tab with related data which I am searching through.
Ultimately, I'd like to have an equation that would do the vlookup (and sumif) as described above and also use the vendor name in column A to look on a particular tab.
Something like:
=vlookup(one cell to the right,'VendorTabFromVendorNameInColumnA'!A:C,3,0)
I was going to use nested if statements on a control panel sheet with a column for the vendor name and a column for the vlookupformula and than paste a single formula all the way down column E:
In column E, every row:
If(A2=vendor1, 'controlpanel'!vendor1equation), if(A2=vendor2, 'controlpanel'!vendor2equation), etc.
Again, the vlookups would all check for one cell to the right of where this nested if statement was (located in column E, looking in F).

View 5 Replies View RelatedI've got a long list of company names, i'm trying to create a formula to see if they match but the problem is the names won't match exactly (e.g it would be Joe Bloggs Limited & Joe blogg's ltd). I've thought about it and think the best way to see if they match would be to take the first word from the first cell (in this case Joe) and then search for it in the next cell and return TRUE if it exists anywhere in the cell and FALSE if not.

My colleagues are working on multiple projects at once. The projects got different priority, so I'm looking for a formula that change the cell color if a person is working on it, depending on the project's priority.
For example if John is working on project: East(pri.1), South(pri.2) and West(pri.3). On East he got 5 remaining hours (cell E8). Then i would like that cell to turn red. For South green and West red.
I was wondering if there is a formula that will search a cell for a word or other specific criteria then if it finds it, puts the requested data / word in the formula cell
Example:
If I have a list of vehicle descriptions all in different formats:
CAR1 1.4 SRI 3 door Hatch
CAR2 5 door saloon GSI 2.0 V8
2.2 CDX 5 door CAR3 Estate
CAR3 Estate 5 Door CDX
Say I want to know which ones are CDX varient I need the formula to look in the cell and return "CDX" or "YES"
I am trying to get a code which searches each row for a keyword, and then assigns a value to it depending on what group of keywords it is.
For example, if the Name or Comment mentions certain fruit keywords, I want it to assign the value: "Fruit", and if it mentions certain vegetable keywords, I want to assign it "Vegetables", and if it is unrelated to either, I want to keep it blank. If the name/comment mentions both fruit and vegetables then I want it to say "Error".
Since the keywords I am using are mostly two letters, I want the search to only search for the two letters on its own, and not as part of a sentence. e.g. if the key word is ED, I don't want it to return a value for "I rested". Instead, I want it to stay blank.
i.e. I want the code to take information from column A and B, and assign a value based on the keywords in column D and E. As an example:
A B C
Name Comment Value
V1 Eating vegetables are good for you Vegetable
null lock out of ep. Fruit
S-1 It is JUST
Fruit-sp Error
D E
Fruit Vegetable
EP SW
KG SP
ST CM
BV LP
The formula I used so far is this: where C3 is the first value
C3=IF(OR(ISNUMBER(LOOKUP(100,SEARCH(Sheet1!$D$2:$D$6,A3))),ISNUMBER(LOOKUP(100,SEARCH(Sheet1!$D$2:$D$6,B3)))),"Fruit","")&IF(OR(ISNUMBER(LOOKUP(100,SEARCH(Sheet1!$E$2:$E$6,A3))),ISNUMBER(LOOKUP(100,SEARCH($E$2:$E$6,B3)))),"Vegetable","")
In columns D and E I put a leading and trailing space between each word to only search for the keywords themselves, and not as part of a word. (e.g. ST is correct instead of haSTe).
This formula seems to work only for 60% of the information, problems occur when the keyword is at the end of comment sentence: the value is blank. e.g. in row B4 of the table I made above my formula returns a blank.

SUMPRODUCT((Str311A=1)*(Str311C=15)*(Str311I="*L/S*")*(Str311G<>" DM "),Str311L)

I am trying to write a formula that will return a statement if a certain month is contained in the text within another cell. Formula is =IF(ISERROR(SEARCH("Dec",Assumptions!B2)),"Ensure Journal is Non Reversing","")
Cell B2 contains a date in the format of Dec 08, so if this date contains Dec, then return "Ensure Journal is Non Reversing", if it doesn't then leave the cell blank.
At the moment it is putting in the first test for every month I select and not changing to blank.
I would like to add a date to one cell (say A6) and have this do two things:
#1) this would add "Closed" to a given cell such a A5.
#2) and this would add a color to a group of cells like A1 through A8.
