Changing Text Color After Change
I have a group of cells which contain the text "[Enter
Text]" and their color is set to Red. I would like the text of these cells to change to Black after the new text is entered in each cell. I've been able to make them ALL change after the first cell is changed, but I would like them all to change seperately. Any suggestions? TIA |

Look at Format | Conditional Formatting. Set the color to red only of the
cell contains the text "[Enter text]". -- Vasant "Todd" wrote in message ... I have a group of cells which contain the text "[Enter Text]" and their color is set to Red.

Use conditional formatting, and set the value to not equal to "[Enter
Text]" and set the colour. -- HTH Bob Phillips ... looking out across Poole Harbour to the Purbecks (remove nothere from the email address if mailing direct) "Todd" wrote in message ...

Hi
why don't you use conditional formating. Try the following - select the cell (lets assume A1) - enter the comparison that cell < "[Enter Text]" - chose your format (black) - enter a second condition for cell = "[Enter Text]" - choose your format (red) -- Regards Frank Kabel Frankfurt, Germany Todd wrote: I have a group of cells which contain the text "[Enter Text]" and their color is set to Red.

Make them red using conditional formatting testing for the text "[Enter
Text]" then when that is removed, you should get the default formatting. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "Todd" wrote in message ...

Thanks to both of you...that was too obvious. It's always
the simple things *sigh* -----Original Message----- Use conditional formatting, and set the value to not equal to "[Enter Text]" and set the colour. -- HTH Bob Phillips ... looking out across Poole Harbour to the Purbecks (remove nothere from the email address if mailing direct) "Todd" wrote in message ...
