Populate cell is another cell is populated
I need to populate a cell if another cell is populated. In other words, if
A2 or B2 or C2 are not null, then put "Orange" in cell D2. Then if Cell D2 is populated and cell E2 is not populated, then I want to put "Please enter a color" in cell F2 and highlight cell E2 in red. Thanks in advance. |
Populate cell is another cell is populated
in D2 enter: =IF(A2&B2&C2<"","Orange","")
in F2 enter: =IF(AND(D2<"",E2=""),"Please enter a color","") set conditional format for E2 to Formula: =$E$2="" and set pattern color.

Try this in D2:
=IF(AND(A2="",B2="",C2=""),"","Orange") NOW ... what happens if D2 *AND* E2 is populated? What happens if D2 is null and E2 is populated? -- Regards, RD --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please keep all correspondence within the NewsGroup, so all may benefit ! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- "jhicsupt" wrote in message ...
