conditional formating??
in this scenario, in Column A, I got inputs like x1234,a321,z321 now the problem is that i want to hightlight any inputs that has more than four character and if the length 4 , high light the last number with a colour. something like this: IF (len(input)4, highlight_last_no(with_colour))) can i use MID or trim to return the input result to read the last value and at the same time give it a colour? -- cjjoo ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cjjoo's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=26916 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=479326 |

=IF(LEN(A1)4,RIGHT(A1),"")
then use conditional formatting formula is =B1<"" of course you cannot conditionally format the source cell itself if you need only part of the string formatted -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom (No private emails please) "cjjoo" wrote in message ... in this scenario, in Column A, I got inputs like x1234,a321,z321 now the problem is that i want to hightlight any inputs that has more than four character and if the length 4 , high light the last number with a colour. something like this: IF (len(input)4, highlight_last_no(with_colour))) can i use MID or trim to return the input result to read the last value and at the same time give it a colour? -- cjjoo ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cjjoo's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=26916 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=479326 |

you can conditional format the actual cell itself but you seem to have to do
each cell separately,cos the formula of Len(a1)4 stays absolute within the conditional format bar -- paul remove nospam for email addy!
