The only problem with that is if I change it to "formula is" = to T9, it
won't change the color because it is a false statement. The formulas in cells Q:S are all different from each other and none of the fomulas are equal to the one in cell T. That's why I am having so much trouble with this, but I figured a macro could perform this color change, I just don't know how to set it up.

Note that conditional formatting is looing for a True or False result in determining whether or not to apply the format -- HTH...

Here is what I have done so far: I have an if/then statement in cells T9:T25 that calculates the numbers I have in cells Q9-25:S9-25. Then I changed the color of the font to orange. Then I set up a conditional format for these cells: less than -2%=red 2% to 10%=green greater than 10%=blue (anything between -2% and 2% will remain orange) This part works great. Now here is what I am trying: I want the font in cells Q:S to change to the same color as the font in cell T. So, if the font in cell T9 is red, I want the font in cell Q9:S9 to change to red. If the color is green, I want it to change to green, and if it is blue, I want it to change to blue. I cannot use the conditional formatting for the values in cells Q:S because the color is based on the value in cell T, not the value in Q:S. So I think I need to set up a macro but I have no idea how to start it. I dont know if I need to use an if/then statement or a select case macro. Please help! Thanks |
