Hi Judi!
No worries, I'm here to help! Here's how you can apply
conditional formatting to turn a cell green if it's blank:
- Select the entire column that you want to apply the conditional formatting to.
- Click on the "Home" tab in the ribbon.
- Click on "Conditional Formatting" in the "Styles" group.
- Select "New Rule" from the drop-down menu.
- In the "New Formatting Rule" dialog box, select "Use a formula to determine which cells to format."
- In the "Format values where this formula is true" field, enter the formula (assuming your selected column starts with cell A1).
- Click on the "Format" button.
- In the "Format Cells" dialog box, select the "Fill" tab.
- Choose the green color that you want to use.
- Click "OK" to close the "Format Cells" dialog box.
- Click "OK" again to close the "New Formatting Rule" dialog box.
Now, any cell in the selected column that is blank will be formatted with the
green color you chose.
