Hi,
Thanks for your formula. It works. Best Regards Low -- A36B58K641 "MyVeryOwnSelf" wrote: I need to conditional format a table with 3 rotating colors of yellow, green and blue. The condition to change the color is when the code changes. A B C D 1 B12 XXX XXX Yellow 2 B12 3 C26 Green 4 C26 5 C26 6 D52 Blue 7 E27 Yellow 8 E27 9 E27 10 E27 11 G49 Green 12 G49 13 H96 Blue May I know what are the formulas 1, 2 and 3 in order for me to get the result ? One way is to use a helper column. For example, start by putting 0 (zero) in E1. Then put something like this in E2 =IF(A2="",-1,IF(A2=A1,E1,MOD(E1+1,3))) and copy down as far as the list might ever reach. This gives numbers 0, 1, and 2 for the three different row colors. I put in the -1 presuming that rows after the end of the list are supposed to have no color. The helper column can be hidden (or kept out of the print range) to avoid clutter. Modify to suit. |
