I was wondering if the is any way to vary the cell shading color and/or font
color based on the cell shading color and/or font color of another cell in the same sheet. I am trying to set up a sheet that shows whether we have received a report from a facility and I have used conditional formatting to change the cell shading to green when "Y" for yes is entered (and red for when "N" is entered). What I want to do is have the adjacent cell which is under a Comments column to automatically be shaded green (or red, depending if "Y" or "N" is entered) as well (as it is yellow before "Y" or "N" is entered in the adjacent cell). By the way today is the first day I have ever messed with conditional formatting or anything more advanced than the most basic functions, so if answers could be dumbed down somewhat I would appreciate it. |
