I have one cell (B10) that will contain either "high", "medium", or "low". Based on one of these 3 values, I'd like to shade cell J15 a color with some white text. I got 1 of the 3 keywords working, not sure how to add in the other 2.
View 2 RepliesI have a spreadsheet where I am adding up figures in columns.
I need to differentiate between 4 different "types" of cells to sum.
Cells with figures in them are either green, red or have no fill; and some cells contain no figures at all.
At the bottom of the column, I need to total up all the figures in red cells, as well as all the figures in green cells.
The shading of these cells is not permanent - colours are changed as work progresses, so I need the totals to keep up with this.
If it cannot be done based on cell fill colour, is there any other way to do it, other than the usual long-winded way of @sum(..... etc
I have a gantt chart that was built in excel. I need to shade cells in the timeline based on persons title under each project.
I can provide a snip of what the layout looks like for a better visual. I want the PM's Green, Supers Yellow and Persons Reporting Orange.
To get the green bar shown is using formula: =SEARCH("Project Management",$E17) , The issue with this is it fails to consider the start finish dates. For this particular project it works but when the formatting is "dragged down" the issue arises.
I have a spreadsheet where I want to be able to Fill cells green in Column B to Column N for any Rows that have a value in Column L. All other Rows should remain the current colour (orange).
I can Fill the cells in Column L using conditional formatting but am not sure if I can use Conditional Formatting on other Columns so that their Fill colour is determined by the value in Column L?
I have a spreadsheet that will monitor payment schedules, in which both payment frequency and the payment start date are inputted by the user.
As such, to make filling out the column(s) fool-proof, I want to grey out cells in which data should not be entered.
For example, if the payment frequency is every 6th day, and the payments are to begin on day 0, then days 0, 6, 12 (etc) should be left white, whereas the remainder of the cells should be shaded.
I can achieve this using multiple conditional formatting rules in excel2007 with iterations of formulae of the type:
I'd like to shade a range of cells based on a particular cells value.
Specifically:
If cell E3 is JUNE then I'd like the range of cells from B10 thru I10 to be shaded.
If E3 is JULY then it would shade C10 thru I10....etc.

I regularly run a report that comes out in a slightly different format each time depending on whether or not there is data for specific criteria. for instance (sample attached): criteria a, b, and c are in rows, 1, 2, and 3 in columns. a, b, and c are expected to repeat themselves several times. if there is no data in one instance of b then you may see something like abcacabc.
I'd like to loop through each row in column a, check to make sure that it is the correct value (either a, b, or c) and if not, insert a blank row so I can then copy the data to my final project without having to worry about formatting.
the example above would then become abca cabc
I 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] ..........
Any 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 am trying to create an event that would shade certain cells if a cell is active.
For example if the active cell is cell J39, shade the following rows as follows:
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'm trying to come up with vba code that will gray out a set of cells when a certain value is enter in another cell.

Im writing a spreadsheet that will act as a hotel room booking diary. There will be 52 sheets (representing each week of the year) and each sheet will therefore represent one week
Each sheet will look at operate the same. Running horizontally will be the days of the week and running vertically will be each of the bedrooms. There are 22 bedrooms in total and each room will have 12 cells allotted to it for each day - lets call this a 'block' and presume that the first block runs from C10 to c21. The final of these cells C21 will have a validation and the user can select 'PAID' 'TO PAY' or 'INVOICED'
If the user selects 'PAID' in C21 I want cells C10 through to C21 to shade GREEN
If the user selects 'TO PAY' in C21 I want cells C10 through to C21 to shade RED
If the user selects 'INVOICE' in C21 I want cells C10 through to C21 to shade YELLOW

View 11 Replies View RelatedI want to sum the values in cells E2:P110 based on the values column D. The
values in D are formulas resulting in something that appears to match D112 in
some cases. I'm using the following equation:

My problem is that D2 :D10 have a formula in it and it's not matching. If
I enter the result of the formula, all is good. How should I deal with this?
I have the following data in 1 of the tabs.

Can this be achieved through a formula?
I need a formula that will calculate the sum total of 6 and a longer formula to cope with 12 letters in a range. The third value in both ranges is worth double points.
The letters and their corresponding values are:
F=0, P=2, M=4, D=6
Some 6 letter examples to illustrate:
in A3:D3 the letters D,D,D,D,D,D return the value of 42 in E3 (6+6+12 (third letter is worth double)+6+6+6
in A4:D4 the letters P, P, F, F, M, M return the value of 12 in E4
Some 12 letter examples to illustrate:
in A3:L3 the letters D,D,D,D,D,D,D,D,D,D,D,D return the value of 78 (6+6+12+6+6+6+6+6+6+6+6+6)
If the range is empty the formula should leave the cell blank.
What I am looking to do is;
If cell A2 = "Closed"
then I want cells B2 and C2 to strike through its own text.
I.E.
A2= anything other than "Closed"
then B2 and C2 = Blah blah blah
but if
A2 = Closed
then B2 and C2 = Blah blah blah
I’m trying to make my life a bit easier, by adding a few macros and formulas to the spreadsheet (Everything was done completely manually before I got here!!!).
What I would like to do is take two columns, which contain a start and end time for work shifts, and colour them GREEN once I have entered a name in the Worker column (Along side the two with the time), and also to fill a cell with a Yes or a No. I’m aware of auto conditioning, and I’ve tried to have a play to get this to work, but I just can’t work it out.
I have posted a link to an image which shows what I want. I hope I've explained it well enough!

I am wondering if it is possible to format a cell that contains text - based on a number in the cell next to it. Here is what I have:
Category......Mean
Results.........3.3
Morale..........3.8
Buy-In..........4.0
I would like the word 'Results' to display in BLACK text because the mean score is in the range 3.0-3.9 (same goes for the word 'Morale'). I would like the word 'Buy-In' to disply in GREEN text because the mean score is in the range 4.0-5.0. Basically, the mean scores are calculated using formulas and I would like the color of the category to change based on the mean score number. Is there a way to use conditional formatting to do this? Or another way to automatically make this work? File is attached.
