I'm trying to format the color of a certain cell, if two values match.
A1=100
B1="Choose"
I want to format B1 to color RED, if A1=any number, and B1="Choose".
B1 contains list-data where you can chose from different values.
So if A1 contains a value, and B1 has not been set a different value than "Choose", format B1 to RED. Which would indicate that you have to set a value for the rest of the worksheet to work.
I would like to format the color of cell A1 on Sheet 1 based on true or false values from cell range A1:A10 on sheet 2. For instance:
1. If all cells on sheet 2 in range A1:A10 were false then cell A1 on sheet 1 would be red.
2. If some cells on sheet 2 in the range A1:A10 were false and some were true then cell A1 on sheet 1 would be yellow.
3. If all cells on sheet 2 in range A1:A10 were true then cell A1 on sheet 1 would be green.
I have 2 different worksheets...each of them containing item numbers. On Sheet1, Column A contains the item numbers. I have conditional formatting to change the interior color of column A based on several criteria.
On Sheet2, I also have item numbers, but they are located in Column B. If item 12345 in Column A on Sheet1 has an interior color of yellow, I would like that same item on Sheet2 to have an interior color of yellow.
I have some tabs that are color coded. What I want to do is:
1. Depending on the tab color on Sheet A, have it compare that color to a set of cell colors on Sheet B that have descriptors next to them,
2. vlookup the descriptor on Sheet B and
3. put the descriptor into cell A2 of sheet A
How I would go about accomplishing this?
I have a spread sheet and I want to conditionally format rows to be a certain color. That part I'm fine with. But I don't want them to be a set color. I have a "key" of different colored cells that I want to be the fill colors of the formatting. The ultimate goal is that for example the key looked like this
red
blue
yellow
green
then the rows I had would be formatted as red, blue, yellow, and green. But if you were to go into the key and change the first cell from red to purple, then the rows would become formatted as purple, blue, yellow, and green. Obviously I can copy formating by hand using the format painter, but I want it to update automatically.
How to format a cell to be normal color unless cell left of it is not empty and this cell is empty.
And I need to format whole sheet to this rule.
In a cell I have this formula to tell me what day of the week the previous date falls on. =TEXT(J77,"ddd")
I want to know how i can format that column so that weekends are in red.
I set format condition in range by tool bar(=if formula is yes then display cell.interior.colorindex=3), but I have no idea how to find out (.address) the red colour cells are displayed in range with VBA?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a list of records that will eventually be used to create a pivot table. Sometimes an account number will be listed twice but instead of adding to the previous info, it needs to start a new record. I decided in these instances to mark the account number with a character (+). Even though the + will designate a separate record, I'd like it to be invisible.
Is there a way to automatically turn the font color white for only the +? Since I've automated the rest of the process using a macro, a VBA solution is fine.
I have a column of data that contain miscellaneous comments in each of the cells in column 'A'. This is a sample of the text in one of those cells:
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
Is there a way to programmaticly search each cell in col 'A' to look for any occurrence of the string 'fox jumps over' and highlite in RED only that string occurrence?
So in the end the above cell would now be:
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
I want to format a group of cells color based on the value of one referance cell. Example would be: If a1 is adn "X" the the results in cells b1 thru b10 would be green else they would be blue. Is there a way to do this using Excel 97?

View 5 Replies View RelatedMy cell has a 'P' or an 'F' plus some additional text. I'm trying to change cell color based on the 'P' or 'F' but I can't get it to recognize the letters.
Samples of what I've tried:
=IF(LEFT(L23,1)=P)
=IF(MID(L23,1,1)=P)
etc.
I can 'FIND' the 'P' or 'F' but there may be a P or F else where in the cell so the color may come up incorrect. I'm trying to get it to just look at the first character in the cell. Can the 'IF' be used with CFs?
I have been tasked with creating a Macro in order to help speed up a rather simple set of steps that are taken to format a spreadsheet each day. The last step, however, is not so simple. I would like to add a statement to the macro code that does that following:
Based on the value of a specific cell, color the cell and all corresponding cells within the same row (from colums A to AA) yellow. Essentially, cells in column D may have a the value "No Allocation", and if they do, I will need to format that cell yellow as well as all the cells within the same row for the colume range A to AA.
I know that I need to use Conditional Formatting, but I can't get the formula code correct.
This is what I need it to do:
If cell A2 is populated (not blank) AND cell B2 is blank, then cell B2 to be highlighted in bright red fill.
If cell A2 is populated (not blank) and cell B2 is also populated (not blank), then leave formatting as per normal
If cell A2 is blank then leave formatting as per normal
Basically, as soon as someone types anything into cell A2, cell B2 to turn red. Then once they have input something into cell B2, the red highlight can disappear. The inputs will be text, not numbers, so I can't use </>
I have tried varying circumstances of IFs, ANDs, NOTs, ISBLANKs etc and I can't crack
I have been trying to format the rows on this sheet to color scale red based on the number of repeat text strings in Column E. Referring to the attached example sheet, '321/312.2/321.3' appears the most times and the goal is to color code the rows it appears in the deepest shade of red, then the next highest occurring string would shade the rows it appears in a lighter shade, etc, in descending order. Our team currently does this across multiple sheets manually everyday and it would be a real time saver if we could get excel to do this automatically.

Column C5:C9999 & D5:D9999 contains alphanumerical values.
In E5:E9999 i want the result=Column C provided it matches Column D else null.
Ex:
C5=Peter ShowROOM D5=RooM E5=Peter ShowROOM
C6=Peter ShowROOM D6=r sh E6=Peter ShowROOM
C7=PeterShowROOM D7=r sh E7="" (null)
C8=PeterShowROOM D8=P E8=Peter ShowROOM
write a script to match a cell value then copy and paste the matching row across two worksheets - "Master List" and "Demographics".
These two worksheets have the same cell values in Column A, the key difference is the Column A cell order in the second worksheet "Demographics". This Column A cell order is set arbitrarily by another system and will vary over time.
I would like to match the rows, then paste the three columns from the second worksheet into the first worksheet.
For example:
"Demographics" Worksheet Cell A2 = "Master List" Worksheet A45 - then copy cells A2, B2 and C2 and paste into A45, B45, C45 respectively.
"Demographics" Worksheet Cell A49 = "Master List" Worksheet A12 - then copy cells A49, B49 and C49 and paste into A12, B12, C12 respectively.
I have created a sample spreadsheet here; - List Schema.xlsx
I've seen a few threads on here about this issue but none of them do quite what I am looking for. I'd like for a single page "report" to be created when a user presses a button (which runs a macro, of course) The macro should be able to run through certain named sheets (even if hidden) and if a cell in any row is red within a sheet then the entire row or rows that meet the criteria should be copied and pasted into the Report sheet.
On the report sheet, for each sheet that has had rows that were copied, I'd like to have the name of the sheet as the header above the pasted rows so that the user knows which sheet the data came from. Any sheet that doesn't have red cells would be excluded from the report. I've attached a sample file but had to limit the number of sheets because of Orgrid's file size limit. Hopefully, you'll see what I am getting at here.
I am trying to get a list of values for cells that have been colored.
The following is the macro that I have but I am not an expert on VBA
I think I need two things to achieve this.
1. Would really appreciate if someone would please help me debug this?
2. After I get this list of values I would like to be able to apply this to a worksheet and in one column define the differing row colors by a value. What would be method to do this?
Sub PrintRGBValues()
Dim intNumColor As Integer
Dim strHexVal, strRGBVal As String
'Create the column headers,
Range("A1").Select
ActiveCell.Formula = "Color"
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Formula = "Index"
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 3).Formula = "Red"
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 4).Formula = "Green"
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 5).Formula = "Blue"
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Activate
I would like to have the cell color changed according to what value is chosen from a drop down menu. I guess you need to make some kind of rule with conditional formatting ...
View 14 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to discover the best way to accomplish formatting a cell by filling it a certain color based on 2 of 3 criteria of other cells.
Column A has the title of the field. Cells B1:D1 have one of 3 values: Nothing/blank, Complete, or x. If all of the x's are gone within the range of B1:D1, I'd like to automatically format cell A1 to fill in Blue (or any color).
A1__________________B1_________________C1_____________D1
Generic Name______Complete_______________x_____________
If the 'x' in C1 is changed to the value of 'Complete', I'd like A1/Generic Name to be filled in with a color.
I want to change the colour of a cell depending on its value, when compared to another row of data identiified by a value in another cell. To try an clarify:
b3 = 1 b5=4 Because b3 = 1 then compare cell b5 with the row g1 as b3=g1 then depending on its postion set a colour
g1= 1 g2:g5 = 2,3,4,5,6
h2= 2 h2:h5 = 7,8,9,10
Here i want to color my cell based on their dates for example : 01-Jan-2014 to 10-Jan-2014.
For the respective date i want to color my bars from G10 to P10.
The first two columns in my document coincide with their respective values. Column A (File Number) is coded for Participant Description (Column B) and the values in each row are associated with one another...
However, I have a 3rd column (Article Number) whose values mean the same as the File Number column, but the the rows don't match up.
What I need is a fourth column. In this column I'd like the value from the Participant Description column to be imputed if the Article Number and File Number column are the same.
An example from the attached spread sheet.
A2 = 7, B2 = 6, C2 = 7 - I need D2 to equal B2
That is easy enough, but this is where I get lost...
A2 = 7, B2 = 6, C3 = 7 - I need D2 to equal B2
I've a worksheet that is 3750 rows of cells from A to DT and contains only numbers with the exception of a header row. The rows are in groups, primarily 4 rows, although there are exceptions - these rows are separated by blank rows. Small example as follows.
0:001:002:003:004:005:006:007:008:009:000000-296567-6-1-400000286567-300-230000715557-16-11-40-18141755226-348405-362203081417192125-893581061800-2443-11124-289326-81318-1105027854331331211318-10216-161235526785691450451115951-17-1882505656683093102671056-191-33-2710000554740971-61-78-34224107-169-128-17090179-85220-55-63-1-162-140-242-235328266319106113-214-64-148205-4108120-142076-167-60-68-6418081102-800000000000-3099695807185-80356138-123194186210677727125-23233092-2942944748055564476-422051-224-34461486649597117-84209-22-251-94
I have been trying to conditionally format each group of rows and each column and color the cell in each column of four (or less) numbers in each group that represents the maximum number.
It was easy enough to come up with the conditional formatting BUT it will take forever to do this manually. I've been told to use a macro but I know nothing of programming. Has anyone seen or heard of a macro that might already be written to perform this onerous task.
Below is my code which isn't formatting the cells it's suppossed to. It looks like it isn't doing anything. I think the issue might be with the highlighted section of my code, but when I go to "Manage" my rules for conditional formatting, excel references the appropriate cell under the "Applies to" section. I am using relative cell references for for the majority of the rest of the code and this section follows a section that selects the correct cell for this conditional format.
Code:
Selection.FormatConditions.Add Type:=xlExpression, Formula1:="=""ABS()>.005"""
Selection.FormatConditions(Selection.FormatConditions.Count).SetFirstPriority[code].....
I have the following data on a spreadsheet created by a formula:
A1: 1.1234
A2. 2.234
A3: 3.34
I have the data formatted to only have two decimal places so it looks like this:
A1: 1.12
A2: 2.23
A3: 3.34
I'm using the following formula in cell B1 to display the values of those cells in a single cell in order A1,A2,A3:
=A1 & "," & A2 & "," & A3
However when the values of A1, A2 and A3 appear in the in cell B1 they appear as: 1.1234,2.234,3.34
Is there a way I can edit the formula or format something so the values in B1 appear as with only two decimal places? i.e 1.12,2.23,3.34
I'm trying to make a simple chart with VBA based on a row with values that will color the offset cell interior red and also give it a value of 1. (look a the example sheet.)
