I want cells containing the same contents to fill with the same color. But I want different colors for each matched set. I know I can match text to a color, but I may have 100 possible items and to create matches for all 100 would be time consuming and there are not enough colors. I just want random colors picked by excel to create some visual separation to similar cells.

I have two sheets:
- sheet 1 ('current')
- sheet 2 ('31May')
The data in column C is the same, although sorted differently and can't be re-sorted to be the same. Where the data in column C is the same in both sheets, I want to fill columns A and B into sheet 1.
how to clear contents and change colour index of cells.
This is for a booking system. The current VB codes allows bookings to be made by entering a reference number, dates of bookings and room type and bed type. When the VB codes are executed, the cells corresponding to the details entered earlier, would fill the booking table with the reference number and change the colour fill (e.g. yellow) to indicate that the slots are booked. Please refer to attached sample.
However, I do not know how to delete the booking. I would like to assign a cell for user to enter the reference number that needs to be deleted. So when the reference number is entered into that cell, user could execute a function which will clear the contents and change the colour index to none for that particular booking with that reference number(s).
Attached is a sample of the problem.
I am using Excel 2010 and basically i am trying to fill a range of cell with a green color if any value was enter in a specific cells. Example: I would like to fill range: A10:c13 with a green color (regardless of the cells content in this range) if a value was entered in cell C10 or C11 or C12 or C13.
I've tried conditional formatting but unfortunately I'll have to apply formatting for every cell and for a range of over hundred cells is not efficient.
I am getting with the great user defined function (SumColor) you posted here and that I have modified a bit to suit my need. I have a spreadsheet thanks to which I calculate the total cost of a product (find spreadsheet attached below). There are three types of costs:
1. Amortization: always start with AMOXXXXX which I locate in the end of the spreadsheet
2. Assemblies: always start with a 99XXX or 98XXX
3. Components: any other notation (90, 91, 92, etc.)
Each product can have until 5 levels of subassemblies:
1. Level 0: always located in row 8 with big bold letters
2. Level1: cells in yellow (color index = 36).................
how can I automatically fill cells with certain colors based on the value of the cell. (i.e. I want to search an entire workbook and fill cells with values between 80 and 99 green, 60 to 79 yellow and 0 to 59 red.)
View 9 Replies View Relatedi would like to be able to fill color numerous rows of cells that have a number in one of the columns that is either above a certain number or below a certain number.
example 3-Nov 5 H
5-Nov -3 V
6-Nov 4 V
9-Nov 12 V
10-Nov -1 H
in this example i want to fill color any row that in column 2 has a number less than -1 and greater than 4.
I have no knowledge of VB programming and the conditional formatting seems limited. I want to change to the color of cells to yellow if the cell value is greater than 80 but less than 99, and if it is 100 or greater to fill red. Is this possible and if so can it be applied to a range of cells?

Afternoon everyone i am having abit of trouble working on an excel 2007 spreadsheet. In cell I1 i have a tab called Color. i want the cells below I1 to be filled with one of 3 colors green, yellow, or red depending on whats in cell F "Status" (closed or open - in progress) and cell G ECD for estimated completion date.
Green - i need it to fill green if status is closed. Yellow - need it to fill yellow if ECD is any date greater than today and if status is open. Red - need it to fill red if ECD is todays date or older and status is open.
I have information in A1. I want A1 to look at B2:B5 and D2:D5 (Under conditional formatting) and if there is one or more "X" in those cells to color A1 Grey (Fill). I keep trying to put a formula under conditional formatting, but it is only working for the first cell (B2) and not the rest.

I copy/paste a good enough information and i like to separate these automated information into different colored rows using keyboard shortcuts. I can't use Conditional Formatting, because i have to investigate each piece of information before I color it a certain color.
For example: Color Purple, Green, And Red
Press Ctrl+1 = Color Purple
Press Ctrl+2 = Color Green
Press Ctrl+3 = Color Red
I am searching for the best way to loop thru col A and highlite cells with a fill color of green. I then wish to copy and paste these cells to another WS.
