Hello,
I have a spreadsheet that shows the top ten cell phone users for each
month, and I would like to apply some type of conditional formatting so
it highlights all the duplicate names each with its own color.
For example:
John Smith = Fill Yellow
Jack Johnson = Fill Green
Does someone know a way I could do this?
Thanks,
Olimits7
Hi Olimits7
You can use Conditional Formatting, as follows
Select all the cells where you may want the cells filled, then select
Format Conditional Formatting next to "Cell Value is select "equal
to" then in the next box type the name, then click on the "Format"
button, select the "Patterns" tab and choose which ever colour you
want, repeat for other names
Hope this helps
Paul
