Trend Up / Down Arrows Using Conditional Formatting Icon Sets
May 30, 2014
I am looking to show Month Wise Trend Up/Down/Nuetral Arrows for the Achievement % for each month.
I want to show the Increase or Decrease trend of the % in the next month.
I have Baseline figures (count) and i have count of Mar, Apr, May months. (Column A)
I have calculated the Achievement % by 100%-(Actual/Target) (Column D, G, J for Mar, Apr, May Months)
I want to show the Increase or Decrease Trend Up/Down/Nuetral buttons either by the Achievement % or by the Total Incidents Each month compared to the Baseline Figures (Column A).
I tried to use Icons Set in Conditional Formatting but i was not able to do that.

I'm trying to insert a simple conditional formatting rule - icon sets according to rule percentages I've selected (Green > 90%; Yellow < 90% but > 80%; < 80% red). The conditional formatting does not work once i select okay. For example. The data set shows 95% as red, 83% as red, it's just not working for me. I've tried opening a new workbook, new worksheet and nothing seems to work. I've been able to do insert this rule based on "number" setting but unsuccessful with percentages.

Is it possible to change color for arrows icons in CF- icon sets? I would really like to have a five arrows pointing in different directions (all in different colors).
Can I do it in conditional formatting or should I go for "Wingdings" fonts and then change font color?

Any way to import and use icon sets for conditional formatting other than the ones provided in excel 2007? I would like to have some circles and shapes in colors other than just yellow, green, red, and gray.

I need to analyse trends between a range of cells. The idea is to display an image of a triangle pointing up if the percentage between the current month and the previous is bigger, a triangle pointing down if the percentage has decreased or a rectangle if both months are the same. I've tried to build a userform to ask the user to input the range and then analyze the data...with no luck at all.

Is there a way to use Conditional Formatting in Excel 2007 to do trend analysis.
For example, I'm lookin at P&L statements that show finanicial information for the last 12 months.
I want to highlight cells that have increased (or decreased) more than 3 straight times.
As an example if I have:
Jan - 5000
Feb - 6000
Mar - 5650
Apr - 5700
May - 5900
Jun - 6100
Jul - 5000
Aug - 5200
Sep - 4900
Oct - 5100
Nov - 4200
Dec - 4500
I would want the cells from Apr, May and Jun to be formatted differently (i.e. red) because they consecutively increased for 3 months.

I am trying to apply icon conditional formatting in a cell. The cell contains the following formula: =VLOOKUP(D20,'owssvr(1)'!O:W,9,FALSE The formula results in a "2", "1", "0" or "-1" in the cell. The icon conditional formatting is not working at all (no icon appears). I have the conditional formatting setup as numbers Green 2, Yellow 1,0 etc based on value. If I delete the formula and just type in any of those numbers directly, it works. I have changed my cells to "number" and it still does not work.

I'm attempting something that I feel should be relatively easy using the conditional formatting icon sets (3 arrows coloured)
I have values in columns A and B. I simply want to compare the value in column B against that in A, and format column B accordingly
B > A (green arrow)
B = A (amber arrow)
B < A (red arrow)
The icon set rules only allow for > or >= conditions, and I can't get the desired results using the rules.
A
B
B (with conditional formatting)
1
10
20
Green arrow (increase)
2
20
20
Amber arrow (no change)
3
15
5
Red arrow (decrease)
4

I've been using conditional formatting for some times now, but this is the first time I have this problem..
I've using conditional formatting to display icon besides a sets of numbers/percentage. The condition is as follows:
--- >= 75, green
--- >= 60, yellow
--- < 60, red
When I used this for "number", it works flawlessly.
But when it comes to "percentage", disaster strikes.. I am getting a Yellow for 75%, and red for 60%.
Below is a screen shot that I did to illustrate the issues. The set of numbers on the left is OK. But the same set on the right, just in percentage, doesn't work well..

I have a few rather large spreadsheets full of addresses, but for simplicity I'll refer to two(Group A, Group B). I can go back and edit accordingly. Group A is a master list of users. After sending out a mass message, using Group A, certain users weren't able to receive the message for various reasons (address problems, spam filters, etc.)--thus Group B. All of the users of Group B are still in the Group A spreadsheet, and this is where my problem comes in.
I need to take all of the entries from Group B, find them in Group A and change their cell colors (along with a few following cells in the same row). I tried to record a macro to do this, but found that a more in depth solution was required. I tried to implement some VBA but my knowledge is, at best, limited.
Here's what I've done so far:
Before recording the macro I copied/pasted the addresses from Group B onto the bottom (a few cells down) of Group A.
I copied the first Group B address, started to record, and pasted the first address into the Find tool. After it was found, I changed the color of the needed cells, went back to the list of Group B cells and deleted the top entry. Next, I copied the second entry (the new first entry) and stopped recording.
When I pressed the shortcut key for the macro, it deleted all the cells correctly; it just didn't format Group A like I intended. I then opened up the VBA editor within excel and found this:
Sub Colorfill()
Range("A4559").Select
Selection.Copy
Cells.Find(What:="USERADDRESS", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas _
, LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False).Activate
Range("A2038:I2038").Select
With Selection.Interior
.ColorIndex = 43
.Pattern = xlSolid
End With
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 4349
ActiveWindow.SmallScroll Down:=186
ActiveWindow.LargeScroll Down:=-2
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 1508
ActiveWindow.SmallScroll Down:=198
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 4569
ActiveWindow.SmallScroll Down:=-27
Rows("4559:4559").Select
Selection.Delete Shift:=xlUp
End Sub

I need to send out an order form (spreadsheet) to 100's of people that need to complete the form and email back to me as an attachment. If I was completing the order form myself I would use the "email" icon that I have pinned to my Quick Access Toolbar (QAT). However, most of the recipients don't even know the Toolbar exists.
Is there a way I can insert an icon / hyperlink in the spreadsheet that does the same thing as the QAT icon. I can insert text to say "click here to email your order" (or similar).
I need to keep it in an excel format and an icon is so much better that asking them to save to their hard-drive and attach to an email, etc.
The QAT icon is exactly what is needed but I need to provide a spreadsheet that works for folk who haven't got the icon.

Below is a series of sets. Column A is the set number. I need a macro that will insert a row between sets and then put a border around each set. In my spreadsheet the sets are from A1:C500. Sometimes the sets are only 1 row, sometimes multiple rows. It looks like I will be doing one of these sheets every week. So far I have been doing it manually, but a macro sure would save some time.

A little background on what i am doing. I have a spreadsheet that tracks when i have blown the dust out of our computers. I have set up conditional formatting so that the text turns red after 300 days and the cell turns yellow after 600 days. However, some computers are in high dust environments. I would like the spreadsheet to tell me to blow the dust out of these sooner. see the attached sheet.

Is it possible to change the format of cell AI3 based on the format of cell C3 and D3? I have C3 and D3 set to turn red based on what is in cell C2 and D2. I would like the following done:
If AI3=C3 & C3 is red, format AI3 blue
If AI3=D3 & D3 is red, format AI3 blue
Otherwise, leave AI3 unformatted.
Possible???

Is there "code" for different formatting in a spreadsheet so you can use an IF statement to do something like:
if(A1=blue background,"Yes","No")
or
if(A1=red text,"Yes","No")
etc.?? But replace "blue background" and "red text" with some sort of number code? I want to compile a list of the items that are formatted with certain background colors and/or text colors and then organize only those items into a chart.

Any VBA that I can put into a macro that will convert conditional formatting into fixed formatting..? So when the cell contents/formulas are deleted the formatting remains. Assume that the range I want to convert is A1:D200...

I do a weekly report for my employer. We have our tabs conditionally formatted. We then insert the corresponding arrows to show a trend to the weekly variance. After the week is up I will delete a column and add a column to the end (making it a trended view) and move the arrows by selecting and dragging all of them into its respected week. I then go on to delete several arrows throughout the worksheet. For some reason my file continues to grow in size however I am only keeping a 12 week trend. The arrows are not deleting properly and are sitting in the background, where I cannot see them. I know this bc I did "find & Select" and chose selection pane. I was wondering how I can resolve this problem or maybe delete just certain columns of arrows (objects)? I had 61,000 arrows and shouldn't have more than a couple 1,000.

I have been sent a spreadsheet with data in it that is from a Pivot table.
The headings look like the ones in the Pivot table the only difference is
there are no drop down arrows to show/hide items
I cant click and drag fields to swap them.
So it looks like a Pivot but I cant manipulate it.

I have created this Excel schedule that is attached. The point of the schedule is to organize Jobs and Crew members. I have VBA code in, so when I calculate how long the job should take, the arrows next to the job will automatically extend. (This should all make sense if you take a look at the attachment.) The only problem is that my arrows do not extend the correct distance. In the attached file I have scheduled "James Lorenz" to do a job starting on tuesday, towards the bottom of the page I did my calculation that figures he should be on that job for 9.5 days. I would like the Arrow next to James' job to extend 9.5 days on the calender instead of 9.5 centimeters or whatever it is doing now.

Morning all. I'm trying to use VBA to generate autoshape arrows to track changes in values.
Something allong the lines of Column B (Jans data) C (Febs Data) E (autoshape arrow, green up, for improvement, or red downwards for a worsening).
The problem I'm having is postioning my autoshapes. The only way I can do it at present is to keep all columns and rows a standard width, and position using multiples of those.
Is there anyway to set the autoshape to the cell height and width, and position it within the boundries of the cell? This way I don't have to worry about rewiting my code every time I change a cell width?

From the Excel Toolbar - Data/Validation - I'm successfully using a validation list [drop down arrow] to be able to choose from a list and have whatever value I choose entered into the cell. So far so good. Everything working fine.
Here's the thing though, the list I'm referencing is a column with 50 rows. Sometimes there are many items in the column - up to 50, and sometimes only 3 items depending on other variables in the spreadsheet.
Because the list is referencing the entire 50 rows in the column (only way I know how to do it), during times when the column has only 3 items (3 rows), the drop down still shows a bunch of blank spaces (like 47 of them - tons of white space with a scroll bar window that runs down beyond where one can see), which is awkward (strange looking).
How do I program the validation list to only show as many cells within a range that have actual values within the cell, or where <> "" ? Or, in other words, to leave all blank spaces found in the list = NOT SHOWN.

I have a table A-AP 4-499 (row 4 being the column headers and 5 being the first row of data).
I'd like to remove some of the filter drop-down arrows as they aren't needed for some column headers and they also look unsightly.
This code works to remove all of the arrows:
Sub HideArrows()
Dim c As Range
Dim i As Integer
i = Cells(1, 1).End(xlToRight).Column
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
For Each c In Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(1, i))
c.AutoFilter Field:=c.Column, visibledropdown:=False
Next
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
However, I want to only remove arrows in the following column headers: A, G, I, J, K, M, N, O, P. I want to keep the rest.

I found this code for hiding an autofilter arrow for column 2. I would also like to hide the arrows for columns 35 through 50. Does anybody know how to do that? Thanks.
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
'hides all arrows except column 2
Dim c As Range
Dim i As Integer
i = Cells(1, 1).End(xlToRight).Column
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
For Each c In Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(1, i))
If c.Column 25 Then
c.AutoFilter Field:=c.Column, _
Visibledropdown:=False
End If
Next
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

I'm trying to create a VBA macro that will compare two worksheets. If an item has "moved" then I want to draw an arrow on the new worksheet of where (the cell range) it was on the previous worksheet, to where it is now. Using Record Macro, I've noticed the coding looks like: ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddLine(276#, 60.75, 309.75, 60.75).Select
How do I make sense of these numerical values? Is there a way to input cell ranges? Is there anything besides drawing arrows I can represent this phyiscally? (as opposed to with values)
