Cell Border Disappearance
Dec 19, 2009When I enter data (digits) into a cell, its left border
becomes thinner ! Where is the connection between format and content ?

I would like to accomplish 2 things in my Excel 2010 spreadsheet by click a cell which already has a number and formatting in it.
1. How do I change the color of the cell, the color of the number in it, and the border around it. (Make it look like I just pressed a button by clicking it.)
2. At the same time have the text in different cell and the number in the selected cell appear in another different cell. (Text in a different cell = A , and the number in the selected cell = 23, the value in the resulting cell be "A 23") Everything I would like to happen at the same time by clicking the selected cell. I would also like this to be done several times by clicking different cells and not changing the previously selected cells.
I have seen spreadsheet where the user has made the outline of the cell border non-visible. This seems like a fairly simple task, but I can't seem to find out how you format this type of border.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet with DDE formulas in the cells. When the contents of any cell changes I want to DRAW A BORDER (NOT CHANGE THE BACKGROUND COLOR !!) AROUND THE CELL .. When another cell's value is updated I want to REMOVE the border which was around the"OLD" cell and now place a border around the most recently changed cell, etc.
Only the newest active cell should have a border around it !!!
How can I change its colour? Every time I try to it reverts to the automatic black. I do not want to change the automatic colour (not that I know how to) because black suits me for most of the cells; but there are some where I want a blue border.
This problem arose in conditional formatting but applies to ordinary formatting too. It occurs in 2007 and 2003.
I have an excel sheet that is pulling data from other sheet based on some cretaria...i want a macro that when ran on this excel fixes column width , makes cell border as "dotted" and outline the area with Thick Outline.
This is what a macro code should do ; Hope this makes sense...thanks.
1. Finds numeric values in rows falling in colum B,C,D,E , than border those cells as dotted (i.e. right click on cell - format column - Border - Style - 3rs on top left row).
2. After filling cell border style as mentioned above , macro should do a THICK BOX BORDER around a cells falling above dotted cells.. i.e. one big sqaure outlined contaiing dotted cells with numeric values.
3. Trick part , my sheet is divided into 2 parts , INTERNAL and EXTERNAL. So i have writen "INTERNAL" in A1 cell and EXTERNAL in 'A' row in last row after INTERNAL lines. So the THICK BOX BORDER as requested in pt 2 shud be separted ones for INTERNAL and sep from EXTERNAL.
I am trying to Formal my Cell Border automatically.
Lets say i have cells
A
B

These are single cells running downwards only. I want to format this 6 cells into 1 box using (outside borders) formating. I need to repeat this for every 6 cells into 1box...and continue on and on. Im doing this process manually...But i got like 100,000 cells...
Since I did not know how to do this I used the record macro cheating option.
Excel spit out this chunck of
I have a sheet which automatically adds entrys to the sheet depending on what team they are on, all i really want to do is colour and border to the last row only, i know this should be able to get done in conditional formationing some how but im unsure.
I have got it in some of the cells with text in, but the ones with numbers in remain the same, if i can remember i used con formating and done, if the cell value is greater than <> then my formating, but numbers remain the same.
Why is the VBA for putting a simple border around a cell so convoluted. For example cell A2:
Code:
Sub CellBorder()
Range("A2").Select
With Selection.Borders(xlEdgeLeft)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.Weight = xlThin
[Code] ........
So many lines to put a simple - single line border (square) around a cell.
Is there any way to change the border color of a cell by running a subroutine? Here is my example:
Col 1
Col 2
1
2
3

I have an existing table with data that is updated daily ... more rows are added. Currently, the cell border is black. I would like to run a macro such that the column header is shaded grey and the borders turn into a shade of gray. I am interested in the 35% grey.
I want to add borders to a range depending on the value in the "a" column. Normally I want a left border in cell "a", a right border in cell "h" and bottom border in cells "a" to "h". However if the value in cell "a" is the same as the cell below I do not want the bottom border.
Cell "a" contains the names of customers using our facilities each day. Some customers use several facilities on the same day. I want the borders to encompass all facilities used by each customer per day e.g. range "a1:h8" might need bottom borders on all rows, because they are single customers using only one facility that day but ranges "a9:h11" would require bottom borders only on row 11, because that customer is using three of our facilities that day.
Set Rng = ActiveSheet.Range("a:h").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants)
change the Range to "a:h"
and:-
With .Borders(xlEdgeLeft)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.Weight = xlThin
.ColorIndex = xlAutomatic
End With
With .Borders(xlEdgeRight)..........
I have a dynamic table (rows regularly added or deleted) that is generated automatically based on choices made by the user in another worksheet. I need a function that will examine all the cells in one column, and when it finds a difference between two cell entries, it will change the border between these two entries to dark (medium weight), and then extend this border across the table. The end result should be that wherever the cell contents differ within a column, the table is divided by a darker border across the entire row.

At present, when I filter rows in ascending / descending order, the cell formatting & conditional formatting stays in it's original position, rather than moving with the cell. I can't find a way to resolve this.
I'm trying to double-click a cell to edit the contents, and I am off a few pixels, it treats the double-click as a double-click on the cell border, not the cell contents, and the focus jumps to another cell in the direction of the border instead of going into edit mode. The effect is as if I had pressed Ctrl and the arrow in the direction of the border I clicked on.
The only way I've found to disable this is to turn off the option "Enable fill handle and cell drag-and-drop", but unchecking that also disables actually useful things, like dragging the corner of a formula call to copy it down, etc.
Is there a good way to disable this cell jumping when I accidentally double-click a cell border?
As i navigate excel, I was wondering how to change the background or highlight (instead of bold border) the active cell?

I am after a bit of code which find a value in a cell "Grand Total" it may not be a the last row
Then finds the last column in the row and puts a border around the whole range.
I have a list (approx 2000 rows). I'd like to put a seperate border around any duplicates that are in the fourth column. If there isn't a duplicate then the regular gridlines are fine. I'd only like the first four columns to include this border. Is there a way for excel to automatically place borders around duplicates? Here is an example of what I have and what I would like it to look like.
View 9 Replies View RelatedDoes any know of excel code to know what know what kind of border it is. I converted a pdf file and now the data are on excel and there are borders and it looks to me like it is border with thickness of medium but when I run a code I produced and mark X to the column next to it to show that it is that border it gave me X on all the rows and so the medium thick border is excel grid without any borders.
Below a small example with the borders as they should be. How do i get a macro to put the borders automatically, depending on the similarity of the cells in column B ? Note the blanc column with the borders should be made automatically as well. Second problem: the minimum height of a "border" should be 34pixels as in the example so you can write something in there after printing the sheet.
View 9 Replies View RelatedThere was also another bit of code which added a border around the selected text.
It got stuck on this:
With Selection.Borders(xlInsideHorizontal)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.Weight = xlThin
.ColorIndex = xlAutomatic
End With
The problem was that there was no Inside Horizontal if there was only one row. I had to chage my code to include a header as well as any selected rows - giving me the two row minimum required. This does the job for now - I'll have to give it some thought on how to get around the problem without the extra header though.
I am using Excel 2007. One of my worksheets has a dark border around some cells. Instead of being blue the lines are black. I used the right click and format cells option but it does not work.

How can I modify this code:
HTML Code:

Dim lRow As Long, c As Range
lRow = Cells(Rows.Count, "D").End(xlUp).Row
For Each c In Range("D1:D" & lRow)
If c.Value > "" Then

To include this:
HTML Code:
With Selection.Borders(xlInsideHorizontal)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ThemeColor = 1

so i can change the color and size of border
I've used Group Boxes to isolate some Option Buttons. I would like to remove the line border of the Group Box, but I don't see a way to format it.
