Highlighting cells when others are populated
Hello all
I would like to be able to use conditional formatting so that when I enter a value in a cell it highlights the first 4 cells in that row. There is already a formula in place that means all cells from E5:LZ203 highlight green if a value is entered (=NOT(ISBLANK(E5)). Eg: I have entered 2 into cells V6:W6 and they go green. However in addition what I would like to happen is that the first 4 cells in that row change colour (basically means its planned). In this case A6:D6. Help! |

Not clear on what you're trying to do, but sounds like you just need to copy the CF to cels ib A:D for the desired rows. Also, be aware your CF formula uses 2 functions where a single function would suffice (and be more efficient)... =LEN(E5) -- Garry Free usenet access at http://www.eternal-september.org Classic VB Users Regroup! comp.lang.basic.visual.misc microsoft.public.vb.general.discussion --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus |
