Conditional Formatting for Comments
Is there a way to insert a word or comment into a cell using conditional
formats? For the cell in question, I have written an IF statement that will enter a 1 when something is incorrect. I've written that formula to be =IF(A2<B2,1,""). For cells with a 1 in it, I've used conditional format to highlight it red. I also want to figure out a way for that cell to say "Check Times." How do I do that? |

Conditional Formatting for Comments
Hi Daren
I have used the iferror formula to do that. Something like =IFERROR(someformual(A3,'blahblah'!$A$3:$AT$3750,2 ,FALSE),"Check Times") This will place the text value in any cell that encounters an error. I use it to point users at the most likely problem when they use one of my tools. Hope that helps.
