Hide rows with conditional formatting
Is it possible to hide a ROW with conditional formatting? I know you can hide
cell values by using a custom number format: ;;; However, that makes the content of the cell unvisible, but it does not hide the entire row. Perhaps my request is not possible outside VBA. I don't need a VBA solution (I have one), but I would like to achieve this result with conditional formatting only. Thanks for your help |

Hi Gerry,
No, it's not possible to hide a row with conditional formatting. Cheers -- macropod [MVP - Microsoft Word] ------------------------- "Gerry Verschuuren" wrote in message ...

Hide rows with conditional formatting
If you really mean hide the row by making the rowheight 0, then nope, not
through format|Conditional formatting. You may want to look at data|filter|autofilter. This may work for you and would be a "macro-free" solution.

Yes, I know about that alternative, but I was just hoping you could set the
row height. Thanks anyway. "Dave Peterson" wrote: If you really mean hide the row by making the rowheight 0, then nope, not through format|Conditional formatting.

That's what I was afraid of. Thanks for confirming my guess.

No to hide row or reset height but you can use to change font.
