How do i call a function to a cell?
Hi,
I am preparing an excel sheet and i am trying to make it carry out the following function. I have a dynamic list which has 3 entities (say A, B & C). Each entity represents a math formula say (Form1, Form2 & Form3) and each formula can reference up to 5 excel cells. Basically my question is, is it possible to pick an entity from the list which calls a formula and Illuminates the reference cells. I know it sounds complicated and i'm not sure if its a function or programming question but any help would be greatly appreciated Many Thanks, |

If your list exists in say A1, then scroll down the reference cells you want
highlighted if they match. select FormatConditional Formatting: If Cell Value Is ------ equal to ------- $A$1 then set your format. whatever you pulled up off the list will show your match by formatting a cell in the "reference cells" HTH "Bill" wrote: Hi, I am preparing an excel sheet and i am trying to make it carry out the following function.
