Custom graphical cell contents
I'm trying to do something here that requires filling a cell with one
of four possibilities: a completely white cell, completely black, only the top half of the cell solid black, or the bottom half solid black. Is there a characterset with these four possibilities, or is there a way of giving the Fill method the instructions to do this in a VBA routine? |
Custom graphical cell contents
Using regular cell shading (aka "fill") will take care of your first two
possibilities. There are two characters which might meet your other possibilities: * UPPER HALF BLOCK (Character code 2580, Unicode (hex)) * LOWER HALF BLOCK (Character code 2584, Unicode (hex)) You can find these characters by selecting menu --- Insert, Symbol. Select (normal text) for the font and "Block Elements" for the Subset. If you tweak the font size and row/column height, I think you'll get the desired results. It also helps to use center formatting for these cells. -Glenn Ray "Dennis Snelgrove" wrote: I'm trying to do something here that requires filling a cell with one of four possibilities: a completely white cell, completely black, only the top half of the cell solid black, or the bottom half solid black.
