I have a worksheet that has times based on 7 minute intervals. If I post 10:37 AM in cell b5 then again in cell b6 I would like b6 to highlight.
I'm trying to use countif($b$3:$b$15,b2)>1 to highlight duplicate times in column B. For some reason it will not work for me. Should I use something different?
I am trying to teach myself something new, say I have a list of numbers in two rows and I want to count the numbers and have it tell me if there are duplicates and highlight the duplicates. I got the part about getting Excel to tell me if there are duplicates but I can not seem to figure out the conditional formating part. I uploaded a sheet.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI need to create a formula that will look at a p/n find its match and add the value from all matching p/n together. After this is done, all of the line items that matched I need them to turn red. But I do not want the first p/n to turn red. It is better explained in my example.
View 12 Replies View RelatedMy background is many years of Access VBA. From time to time, I'm called upon to work in Excel. I am not that familiar with the library.
I'd like to know if it is possible to do the following:
Examine Column 1 and, for each like value, examine Columns 2 and 3 for duplicate values. Highlight or conditionally format the duplicates in Columns 2 and 3 (again, for each like value in Column 1).
Being that I've coded Access applications for quite some time, I am sure it can be done...I just don't yet know exactly how. I've searched the archive for and found some examples which deal with duplicate data, but have found none yet which quite fit my scenario.
I've found sample code which enforces rules and conditionally formats cells when new data is added. It works fine and I understand it. I'm hoping the kind soul who might help me with the above can explain how I might do both things on the code page.
I assume the Worksheet_Change Event would contain the "enforcement" code.
Below is some sample data
Column A is the START date/time
Column B is the END date/time
What I'm looking at doing is high lighting any cell where the START and END dates clash.
Is this possible via CF?
If possible highlight the START cells where a clash occurs.

I can't follow the directions on http://www.ozgrid.com/Excel/highlight-duplicates.htm to make the conditional formatting work. The formula they say to use is = COUNTIF($A$1:$A$100,A1)>1. I've changed the range to read=COUNTIF ($F$10:$G$999,F10)>1 and have applied a format change of the text color. It is obvious I have duplicates but they are not changing color. I have the range highlighted before I go to conditional formatting.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a list of percent item. I want to use conditional formatting to highlight items greater than 50%. I do as following:
- Hightlight items, C2:C5, then choose Format ->Conditional Formatting
- I choose Formula is, and the format in the condition box is =">50%"
- Finally, I choose Format to choose the color.
I think I do the right steps but Excel doesn't show anything.
I know it can be done cause I've used it before but I can't seem to make it work this time. I want to use the conditional formatting to compare two ranges of cells within one worksheet I know it's something like =match(A2:C12) the two ranges are sitting one on top of the other. . .

I am working on a spreadsheet in Excel 2007 and i am trying to use a formula in the conditional formatting that will highlight a cell if the date is prior to today's date and the next column over is no. the formula i am using right now is =IF(F2>TODAY(),IF(G2="NO",TRUE,)). the problem i am having is that it is highlighting all cells that have a date and the next column over is no.
i can't figure out how to get it to do an if this, then that function correctly. one other thing that could potentially be causing my problem is that the cells.
I am trying to have highlight are calculated themselves based on a formula. see the attached spreadsheet for information.

I have a spreadrsheet (sample attached) which populates a calender due to columns on seperate sheets being filled with text and corresponding dates. I started using conditional formatting to highlight certain conditions but soon realised I need more than 3 so I tried looking into VBA - and failed.
All the cells in the calender have the 3 usual conditions associated to them but in addition I need to be able to colour individual cells if they contain certain phrases or parts of phrases like "BP" or "Current"
I need to hightlight from A1:A18
In the above cells I have values from 1 to 4
So I need to fill the cell with 4 different colours.
If cell equals 1 = Green
If cell equals 2 = Yellow
If cell equals 3 = Red
If cell equals 4 = Blue
What I do is highlight cell from A1:A18, clik on 'Format', 'Conditional Formatting', I've tried using 'Cells Value is' and 'Formula is'.
i am trying to highlight the cells red in the b column if a3=d3 (if names match) and if b3<e3 (only if name is "a" should e3 be used to compare with b3). hope this makes sense. i've attached a sample worksheet.
i've tried =if(b3<e3, (vlookup(a3,d3:e33,1,false),true)...but does not work correctly. i need the average weight to remain constant according to the name when comparing, but if i drag the formula down to other cells, the average weight does not correspond to the name.
What i want to do is highlight all row instances where that row column10 has the text "Roller" . All i can see is the forumular =$J1="Roller" ive tryed to select just the single cell J and tryed the whole row and a range. Though i get a error message about =-+ quotation ect.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI use the conditional formatting of duplicates within a column quite often. Now I am trying to highlight duplicates based on multiple cells in the same row. I can't seem to get a formula to make that work. I have four cells in separate columns but the same row, for example H2:K2, H3:K3, H4:K4, etc. I would like to highlight the four cells in that row if there is a duplicate of all four cells in another row. So if one, two or three cells are duplicates in the same column I do not want to highlight any of the cells, it should only highlight the group of four cells if all four cells are identical in another row. Pretty much the same way the default highlight duplicates works, just the value is spread across four cells.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI would like to identify duplicates in a list using conditional formatting in Excel 2007.
I have tried choosing to identify duplicates using the formula that I have found on many threads throughout the message board:
=COUNTIF($A$1:$A1,$A1)>1.
This function works up to 15 characters in a cell, but Excel seems to be treating all digits after the first 15 as the same, resulting in a "fuzzy match" where I want an exact match. Many of the values in my list are 18 characters long, in text format to prevent rounding.
I've noticed that Excel treats the 18-characters values the same way when sorting; for example, it treats these two values as the same:
'234567891011121314
'234567891011122413
Is there a way to force Excel to examine those last four digits for the purpose of sorting & identifying duplicates?
