Conditional Formatting
Thanks, EXACTLY what I wanted!

Could I write a formula that does the formatting: all cells with the
number
1 and a letter are yellow, all cells with the number 3 plus a letter are
blue?
Select col A (A1 active), then apply CF using "Formula is:" as follows
Condition 1,
Formula is:
=AND(LEFT(A1)+0=1,CODE(UPPER(RIGHT(A1)))=65,CODE( UPPER(RIGHT(A1)))<=122)
Format: Yellow
Condition 2,
Formula is:
=AND(LEFT(A1)+0=3,CODE(UPPER(RIGHT(A1)))=65,CODE( UPPER(RIGHT(A1)))<=122)
Format: Blue fill

Forgive me if this shows up twice...
I know that there is a limit to 3 conditions, however I was wondering of
there was a way to write a formula for the following:
I have a schedule for classes grades 1,3,&5. Each grade has 4 classes,
A,B,C,D, so a total of 12 classes.
I made a schedule in Excel and I want to color code all the grades
differently, e.g., grade 1 in yellow, 2 in blue, and 5 in green.
In the cells for different periods and different days of the week I've
typed
1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, 3A, 3B, etc.
Now when I open Conditional formatting, if I want to use cell is equal
to, I
could only format the first three, 1A, 1B, 1C...
Could I write a formula that does the formatting: all cells with the
number
1 and a letter are yellow, all cells with the number 3 plus a letter are
blue?
Thanks!
