Sorry... but one more(ish)

I'd like to highlight the range W9:X134 when there is a Holiday in
the pay
period... I can get it to work for the first day of the pay period
but not
if the holiday falls on any other day...

What am I missing?

Hi
just enter in the cell for column E the following formula:
=IF(COUNTIF($X$1:$X$100,E$6)=1,"STAT","")
copy this to the right

Thanks Frank!

This did the trick!

Is there a way to format a cell in the row below based on the
result
of the conditional formatting? (or countif formula?) I'd like
to
return STAT in the cell directly below the conditionally
formatted
holiday result... any ideas?

Thanks again for your great HELP!

Hi
see below

In cell "E6" I would like to return either 1 or 16 based on
the
result of a lookup table in cell "DB4". The easiest would be
if
the
answer was even then "16" would be returned. If it was odd
then
"1". I know that there is an easy solution but can't get me
head
around it...

try
=IF(MOD(your_lookup_formula,2)=0,16,1)


What I'm trying to do is to change the dates on a payroll
sheet...
this seems like the easiest way to do so... however if
somebody
could tell me a way to populate the columns to the right of
the
first day of the pay period ("E6") based on a period picked
from a
control that would be even better!

not quite sure what you're trying to achieve but if you insert
a
date
in E6 you can use the following in F6
=E6+1 - included weekends
or
=WORKDAY(E6,1) - if you want only workdays
copy both to the right


Then I think that there's a way to mark and identify Holidays
correct? In the perfect world... the user would pick a pay
period... the cells "E6" to "T6" would fill in the dates and
if
there was a holiday during that period that the column would
be
highlighted... could that be done?

one way:
- you have stored your holiday dates in a separate range (lets
say
X1:X100)
- highlight the columns E6:T6
- goto 'format - conditional format' and enter the following
formula
=COUNTIF($X$1:$X$100,E$6)=1
- choose your format for the holiday columns
