Darker Shades In A Row With Multiple Color Cells?

Apr 21, 2014

I've got a worksheet with each column in either grey or white for readability. There are certain rows in this sheet that I want to be a shade darker, but retain the same color scheme (i.e. the white columns would be light light grey, and the grey columns would be a shade darker grey).

Is there a way to do this by highlighting the cells, and selecting something to make them a shade darker, say 20 or 25% darker, yet retain the color 'family' if the column?

Color Cells Based On Multiple Conditions Of Different Cells

Jan 15, 2008

I’m trying to change color in cell B9 according to different conditions in Cell C9 (than on b10 according to c10 and so long until necessary - probably will be around 2000 lines). Since there are more than 3 conditions and in two cases condition depends on the color of the C Column, I can not use conditional formatting. I’ve searched and found similar forums here, but since I’m ignorant in VBA code, I couldn’t manage to make adjustments. So if you can help me with the code, I would really appreciate it!

Condition and Results required would be:

IF column C = “S” than on Column B = color cell light blue with white border
IF column C = “P” than on Column B = color cell Green with white border
IF column C = “A” than on Column B = color cell Yellow with white border
IF column C = “L” than on Column B = color cell Red with white border
IF column C = “C” than on Column B = color cell Dark Blue with white border
IF column C = “ ” than on Column B = color cell white
IF column C = “V” and has white background than on Column B = color cell white
IF column C = “V” and has a Dark Grey background than on Column B = color cell Dark Grey

I don’t know if the last two are feasible.

Conditional Cell Color Change For Multiple Cells

I'd also like to have it be able to change the 2 cells to the right, in columns (M&N) whenever the conditional value given below are true. I thought I had posted this message yesterday but never saw it show up as a thread.

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Set MyPlage = Range("L1:L800")
For Each Cell In MyPlage

If Cell.Value = "Hold" Then
Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 3
End If
If Cell.Value = "Complete" Then
Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 4
End If
If Cell.Value = "Issued" Then
Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 43
End If
If Cell.Value = "Release" Then
Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 36................

Macro That Will Auto Color Multiple Cells Based On Data Displayed In One Cell

Jan 7, 2013

I am trying to find a way to write a Macro that will auto color multiple cells based on what data is displayed in one cell. The cell I want to reference is a vlookup cell.

Basically this is a part label. And depending what part is selected from the list my vlookup will display its position on a vehicle(i.e.. FR, FL, RR, RL, Etc..). So if vlookup comes back with FR I want the various cells on the label to be orange, etc..

ALSO: if there is a way to embed it so it does this automatically (rather than run the macro each time).

Color Column Charts Based On Font Color Data Cells

Oct 27, 2009

I have attached the relevant spreadsheet for which I need to alter the color of the columns based on Site number ( Sheet 1). % Mortality will be represented in the Y-Axis, and the Site numbers would be on the X-Axis. All columns (% Mortality) except one will be of the same color, and the one of a different color will indicate a specific site. As an example, site 86 is colored differently. The way I require the chart to look is shown on Sheet 1.

After reading through some great posts on Ozgrid, I managed to do this using conditional formatting (Sheet 2), but that sort of falls short because I am required to add a data table to the chart, and the parameter that is indicated by the column bars happens to appear twice in the data table.

I was wondering if this can be automated maybe using VBA, but with the possibility of simply matching the color of columns with the font color of respective entry in the data series.

Color Cells Based On Color Of Preceeding Cell

Nov 18, 2007

I am looking for a very simple script that will achieve the following:

On the clicking of a button, Select and shade in a cell yellow, delete the yellow shading of the previous cell. The shading & selection should move up a column of cells, 1 at a time, in the following order:

From B10 to B9, then B9 to B8, B8 to B7 etc until the selection and shading is at B2. Once it is at B2 subsequent clicks will simply keep it at B2 (the top). Thus after 8 clicks the shading & selection should travel from B10 to B2, with only 1 cell being shaded yellow and selected at any one time.

Macro To Color Cells Based On Their Font Color

Jun 18, 2008

I have a spreadsheet that i download from the net daily, which is seperated into columns of information.

I want to be able to look down a column and mark a cell in a seperate column if the cell font text is red.

For example looking down column A ... if the font text of a1 is red then mark the cell background colour of T1 red - if a2 text colour is red then mark the cell T2 red .... etc etc.

If the font colour in a1 or a2 ... etc etc is any other colour then do nothing.

I have 5 columns I wish to look down and mark in 5 seperate columns - I have tried to do this by conditional formating but don't know the fomula for checking font colour.

Excel 2010 :: Color Fill A Range Of Cells If Specific Cells Not Blank

Feb 7, 2013

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.

Color Cells Based On Adjacent Cells Being Empty & Add Text

Apr 2, 2008

I’m trying to make my life a bit easier, by adding a few macros and formulas to the spreadsheet (Everything was done completely manually before I got here!!!).
What I would like to do is take two columns, which contain a start and end time for work shifts, and colour them GREEN once I have entered a name in the Worker column (Along side the two with the time), and also to fill a cell with a Yes or a No. I’m aware of auto conditioning, and I’ve tried to have a play to get this to work, but I just can’t work it out.
I have posted a link to an image which shows what I want. I hope I've explained it well enough!

Color Blank Cells In A Row Between 2 Cells With Specific Number

Jan 31, 2013

I have a similar question regarding coloring of empty cells between two cells with specific numbers as posted in below thread : [URL] .....

This is exactly what I want. But here I have some problem with formula.

=COUNTIF(A1:Z1,1)=1

Above formula could pick cell value 1 and color the empty cells in a row between the cells having value=1. But if I want to use the same formatting for other numbers like 2 or 3 it doesn't work.

For example in row(A1:Z1) I have A1=1, D1=1, and F1=2, K1=2, and O1=3, U1=3

I required multiple conditional formatting that could color the cells based on values first from A to D then from F to K and finally from O to U.

I'm using above formatting it works with cells having values 1 but its not working for 2, 3 or any other cells values.

I have already tried replacing 1 in above formula with 2 and 3 but it doesn't work.

Color Blank Cells Between 2 Cells With A Number In Them

Apr 20, 2008

creating this code or fomatting in my excel file. I want to fill color in cells between the two cells that has value of say "1" or anything in it. There will be only 2 numbers at any time in any row that has the value in it. All other cells will have value of "0" or can be changed to empty cells. So, the formula should check from say range "A3 to Z3" in row and for example it gets the first numbered cell in C3 then it start filling color from C3 cell until it reaches the other cell in that range that has the number in it. Say the row "A3 to Z3" has 1 number in C3 and other in cell H3 then it should fill color between this two cells from C3,D3,E3,F3,G3 and H3.

Color Cells Based On Difference Between Two Cells

Jun 3, 2008

I have a 2 lists of manually entered values where the values in each row are related. They are related in the sense that if the difference between them is equal to or less than, a given amount then the cell containing one value is colored Blue. e.g.

COl A holds Value x while COl B holds value y. I need to check which value is entered in columns A and B and if a given difference or greater exists colour the cell in COl B. For example the relationship relevant to a COL A value of 21.0 is 11.0.

So, I enter the following;

A1 B1

21.0 13.0 <----------------No color Blue

I enter new values

21.0 9.5 <----------------B1 is blue.........................

Same Color Scale Looks Different In Multiple Worksheets?

Mar 22, 2013

I have a row containing numbers from 1 to 4 and I want to use a color scale to differentiate between the cells easier. The problem is, that I have multiple sheets and in some sheets, I get a different color scale, even though I use the same command and color scale.

I've already removed the "conditional formatting" on all worksheets, but the problem isn't resolved. Is there another way to clear the formatting of a cell, besides going to the "Conditional Formatting" tab and clicking "delete rule for entire sheet"?

Sum Based Upon Cell Color - Multiple Times

Oct 7, 2008

I have a workbook with a tab called "parts list" where there are thousands of parts with prices. I need to sum all of the parts based upon their location within the list. The list is divided with the following headers - Yellow (Assemblies), Gray (Sub-Assemblies) there can be many under a yellow header, and Green (Components) there can be many under a Gray header.

I have been summing the areas manually, and I am hoping for a more automated way of creating the totals by running a macro.

I need to sum (Column K) from Yellow+1 to Yellow-1 and deposit the sum in the starting Yellow row - Column L. This needs to be repeated for as many Yellow Headers as there are in the list. I then need to repeat the process for Gray Headers - Col K, Gray+1 to Gray-1, and put total in starting Gray header, Column L. Once again, there can be many Gray Headers under a Yellow header, and this needs t be repeated throughout the list. I then need to repeat this for the Green Headers - same as above Gray. I am hoping that this can be done by color, but if it's easier, I can sort the list by color and in column M, add an "A" to all Yellow Headers, "S" to all Gray Headers, "C" to all Green Headers, and "E" to represent the end of the component list -

Hange Color Of Multiple Worksheet CommandButtons

Jul 23, 2009

I am making an extended spreadsheet schedule for a friend, almost done except how to do this easy: There are 135 (!) cells that will represent day and time in a workweek if someone is available or not. Easiest procedures we could think of is make the cells some how change color, all red by default (unavailable), change them to green if someone is available. We were making a button change its color, but it will require a lot of programming (index numbers to remember) is there an easy way to program 135 buttons or cells to change its color on a mouse click?

Combining Multiple Cells In Multiple Worksheets In Multiple Workbooks Into One Table

Jan 6, 2009

I'm currently doing a survey using an excel workbook that contains multiple questions across multiple worksheets using radio buttons linked to certain cells.

I have around 400 workbooks coming back to me, so what i want to do is take specific values from across many worksheets within each workbook and combine them into a large master table in a seperate workbook.

I've tried using VBA, but not being very proficient at it i've hit a brick wall with that, so i'm hoping that there is an easier way to do it than what i'm currently pursuing.

Change Cell Background Color Based On Multiple Conditions

Aug 6, 2008

My Excel skills are basic at best, with no knowledge of VBA other than finding the VB Editor. What I'm trying to do: Attached is the file I'm working with, to give you a better idea. When a name is selected in column B, the cells in the non corresponding columns E to N should have a black background color. For example, when you select Mike in column B, the cells in that row in columns I to N, named Dave and Dean, should become black. If you select the name Dave, columns E to H (Mike) and M to N (Dean) should become black. In addition, the background color of the non-black cells should change depending on the status.

OK : green
FAIL: red
N/A: orange
Exceptions: blue

The attached file shows a few possible results, manually entered.
