I am seeking to insert an image into an Excel cell by a formula or a macro.
I am currently trying to have a green traffic light appear in a cell if another particular cell has the numerical value of "1".
for example, something along the lines of: =if(A1=1,"image1.jpg","").
Now, i know the above formula doesn't work but is something similar possible?
I want to include a simple dashboard-light, which turns green, yellow or red, dependent on a value, eg in A1. [like the one appearing after my name]
A1<100 => light turns green
A1 100-500 => light turns yellow
A1 >500 => light turns red
Does something like this exist? Preferably in VBA code?
I'm trying to create a dashboard with traffic lights displaying the status of a task. My manager wants a to be able to pick a color (Red, Yellow, Green) from a drop down menu and then have that be displayed as a red, yellow or green traffic light. Using the conditional formatting option, I'm only able to use numerical values or a formula. I'm hoping there's a way to either create a drop down list with the 3 different colored traffic lights or a way to use VBA to have the conditional formatting search by text instead of numbers.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am wanting to have conditional formats so the cell fill in a range on sheet 1 will change to:
- red if the value of a cell on a seperate sheet (date) is greater than 18 months old
- yellow if the value of a cell on a seperate sheet is 'In progress'
- green if the value of a cell on a seperate sheet (date) is less than 18 months old
What I need to do it create a traffic light icon, just the ones in Excel based on the dates within the field. If there is a date present which is past todays date then I would like it to display the green traffic light icon, if the date present is scheduled for a future date I would like the amber traffic light to show, and finally if there is no date present at all I would like it to display a red traffic light icon.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to work out to most efficient way of making a quality monitoring system which uses traffic lights to show problem products.
The traffic light system need to obey the following "rules".
Each product is tested once daily When a product fails once it moves to Amber, When a product Fails twice in a row it moves to RedOne pass when a product is in Amber Status, will reset it to green.If a Product is in Red status, it much have 3 consecutive passes to reset to Green.
I have tried to use array formulae to look up a column for previous values in the past for this sort of thing, but with 100000+ rows it runs far too slowly.
Banana Problem?
Product
Result
Traffic Light (0=green, 1=amber, 2=red)

I have a scenario where I am trying to work out on a spreadsheet how many failures I have had according to a traffic light system. If I have 5 or less failures it is considered green, between 6-10 amber and 11 or more red. How can I create a formula under column A that captures which status it is on?

I'm working within columns A through H.
IF the list value in D2 is = to MT,GP,or H then I need the entire row 2 to turn light gray.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI want to turn a certain cell(sheet1!K2) either green, orange or red depending on certain conditions.There are 3 conditions.If 3 of these conditions are met I want the cell to go red.If two of these are met I want it to also go red.If one of these conditions are met I want it to go orange and if 0 are met I want it to go green.
The conditions are :
1) if a number > 0 is entered into B11:H11
2) if a number > 0 is entered into D11:H11
3) if Ex is entered into cells sheet2!D2:D16
I need to conditionally format a cell to:
-return red/yellow/green when the value is below/above or within range of targets but dependent on an increasing or decreasing trend.
If the trend is decreasing and the value is above the target is should return red.
If the trend is increasing and the value is above the target is should return green.
For all there is a Threshold.
For example:
Value Target Trend TrafficLight
(A) 79% 90% Increasing RED
(B) 69% 70%-90% Withing Range Yellow
(C) 85% 90% Decreasing Green
Thresholds:
for example (A) - Red: <80%, Yellow: 80%-90%, Green: >90%
for example (B) - Red: 60-90%, Yellow: 50-60%;90-95%, Green: <50%;>90%
for example (C) - Red: >80%, Yellow: 80-90%, Green: <90%
I have these light blue lines showing up on my sheet. I have "not boarders" selected and they do not print - but I can see them on the screen. Does anyone know how I can get rid of them?

I need to sum the cells that are light green in color. The color is manually added. I guess I need a macro for this. I have never done a macro so be very specific.

View 7 Replies View RelatedUsing 2003, I'm trying to do the following, data starting in A3, and ending in L3:-
- If A3 is blank, cells have no format
- If A3 has a value, with A4 blank, fill is light blue and bottom line solid, top line dotted
- If A3 has a value, and A4 does too, fill is light blue, top and bottom line dotted
- If H3, which is a date field, is greater than today font is black, if less than today, font is red
I'm sure this will be an easy query.

Is there any way to modify the 1st style under the Light category? I like it because it's the most simple but it won't allow me to Modify or Duplicate. Is there a work around to duplicating/copying it? I've tried manually creating a new style but I can't get it to get the lines fills correctly.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm wondering if it is at all possible to have a cell comment automatically update depending on what data is input in the cell (via user input, VLOOKUP, etc.)?
For example, if cell A1 contains the text "CHARLES" with a comment saying "Employee of the Month", and is then subsequently updated with the new text "JOHN" (again, via direct input, a VLOOKUP, data validation, etc.) is there a way to have the comment automatically update to say something else, such as "Team Lead" for example?
I've considered using VBA to accomplish my goal, but am unsure how to compose an effective code to do so. I've also considered perhaps creating a named table filled with all the different comment possibilities I would like to have used in this cell and then inputting a formula in either cell A1, or the comment contained therein, that would then call the corresponding text from that table based on the data in cell A1. Honestly, I'm not sure that what I'm trying to do is even possible;

View 3 Replies View RelatedWhen I use the mouse pointer to select a cell I can't use the arrow keys to move to another cell while the pointer is over the cell and I can't edit the cell while the pointer is over the cell. If I move the pointer away from the cell then I can move around and edit as normal therefore I don't think this is a scroll lock issue.
This issue also happens when I select a tab. If I select a tab and then leave the pointer over the tab I selected then I can't use the arrow keys to move around the worksheet or edit a cell; if I move the pointer away from the cell then I can move around and edit as normal.
I am using MS Excel 2010.
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.
I have one column that contains a monetary amount (column AQ) , and another that contains text reading either "inflows" or "outflows" (column AC)
When AC says "inflows", AQ should be positive, and when AC says "Outflows", AQ should be negative.
I need the text in column AQ (the monetary amount) to become red when the the opposite is true.
i.e. When AQ is negative and AC says "Inflows", AQ should become red. And when AQ is positive and AC says "Outflows", AQ should become red.
I have 2 problems relating to LOOKUP.
Not sure if Excel can perform these calculations as they could get to complex.
Problem 1
Can it be possible to have excel look at data from one cell reference another cell then display the results from the cell next to it in another cell, sort of example:
Tab 1 (Never changes)
AB
Bob1
Jon2
Fred3
Tab 2 (Dynamic, changes each week)
AB
Jon
Fred
Bob
So it would work as follows.
Tab2 column B will take Tab2 column A’s data check Tab1 column A and display Tab1 column B’s result.
Problem 2
Weekly league rank table that shows position movements week by week
Example.
Week1
1Jon
2Bob
3Fred
Week2
1FredUp 2
2BobNot Moved
3JonDown 2
Can Excel calculate/show the actual movements of league positions?
I have three cells in A2:C2 which require user to input some data.
What I want to achieve is to combine the data from A2:C2 in D2.
C2 is a field which user will input the date. He might key in 21/08/06 or
21/08/06, 30/08/06
I have tried using below formulas in D2 but without success.
=A2&" " &B2&" "&(C2)
=A3&" " &B3&" "&DAY(C3)&"/"&MONTH(C3)&"/"&YEAR(C3) (doesn't work if there are 2 dates.
I have attached a file which shows 3 scenarios if user input 1 date and 2 dates.
I have the following range of cells B2:Y3700. I want that when a value from 1 to 9999 is inserted in one cell of the above mentioned range, to copy the row number of that cell in the cell that is located in column Z and row is the number inserted in that cell. For example, if the number "1234" is inserted in one cell from range B2:Y3700, to enter in cell Z1234 the number of the row where is located the respective cell. At same the time is very important to me to not permit to insert the same number in B2:Y3700, so i believe that is need a macro code to check the cell from column z to see if value already exist .

I have a spreadsheet with details of letters that should be responded to within 20 days, and i want to have a cell showing the amount that that need a response within 10 - 5 days. Basically I want to have a value of one returned to a cell in a row if one cell in that row contains a value between 10 and 5 (less than 11, more than 4) and another cell is blank. For example, AD27 contains 6, k27 is blank. I want AE27 to show 1. I also need the same if the value is less than 5, but i'm sure i could figure out how to alter it.
