    This is a tutorial about excel Conditional Formatting. In this tutorial I am going to show how to use your own formula to define Conditional Formatting. After watching this tutorial you should be able to apply special formatting to a single cell or to a range of cells based on condition/ values of other cells. Also you should be able to copy Conditional Formatting from one cell to others.

    Saved me writing a macro, thanks! FYI, I made three rules and applied them all to the same cells. This way, if one column contains a Red, Amber, or Green, I am able to format a different cell with that color.

    Thank you - you helped me solve a problem you weren't even showing. I saw you take the $'s out from before the cell numbers in the formula, and this triggered an idea to ADD those to my own formula for my own problem. It gave me the solution I needed.

    I have a question: I have a range of cells which contain sales values and each cell has a unique value. What formula must i use to color-format MAX and MIN values at one go.
    Thank you very much.

    I don't know what to refer at this moment but see below if it helps.
    Ex, having these values in cells A1 = I, A2 = AM, A3 = THE, A4 = BEST. A formula on cell A5 using ampersand/&/AND can be used to add them together. This will look like
    =A1&" "&A2&" "&A3&" "A4
    and this will show as "I AM THE BEST" in cell A5.

    I work at a college where I provide an Excel report to collect data from campus departments. Sometimes my colleauges leave cells blank that requires data. I want to format all of my reports to where the cells are light red and they turn light green when text/number is added to the cell. I believe this will help elimate receiving incomplete reports. Do you have a video that can walk me through that?

    Hello,
    I would like for you to tell me how to format a new rule? I'm using to four cells, they're name nominal, lower, upper value and actual value. When I put in actual value in the actual value cell, I would like the actual cell to turn red if the value is outside of the lower and upper value? Can you help me out, please?

    Hi. I have 4 cells with percentages in them. I want for format the first cell only, if the value of that cell is greater/lesser than the value in the other cells. Blue if it is greater, and yellow if it is lesser. This should only be done if the first cell is greater/lesser than all the other 3 cells, not if it is greater/lesser than one or two other cells only. And then I will need to copy this conditional formatting to other cells in the same column.Please help.

And I am marking these people as "done" in column E and type the date, of when this is Done in column F (always todays date), can I make it so, that when I mark the person as "done", F fills itself autamatically with the current date in the calendar??

      @TechTutorialVideo  10 років тому

      Thanks for checking my video. You can select all cells where you want to apply conditional formatting and then work on it to apply a rule for it. Sometime it depends upon how complex is your rule is. Anyway try to select all cells together and see if you can build one based on your requirement. Let me know if you need further clarification.

    hi my problem is I want to apply a colour to the number in a long row of cells if the number in a cell is greater than originally applied to that cell so if I have 3 cells with 10 20 30 in a row of 3 cells ,if any increase above 10 20 or 30 the new number to appear in another cell (next to it)in red

    • @TechTutorialVideo
      @TechTutorialVideo  10 років тому

      You can select your cell and go "Conditional Formatting" on top and then choose "highlight cell rules" and then "greater than". Specify the number as 10, 20 or 30 based on your need. Then change value of the cell to a great number and see how that works. if you want to change the highlight color, edit the rule.

    quotation mark ("" / '') used to indicate a text in a formula. When you write some text directly on a cell, you don't need it. Like a formula is
    =IF(A1="I","error","good") the result will be "error" in A5
    Now parentheses in excel are used for formulas and follows simple mathematical rules.

    Do you know how to conditionally format a cell based on the formula in the cell? For example, let's say that I use a formula to compute the value of a given cell. Well, I am trying to do a conditional format based on a string of text that is included in the formula that was used to create the value. (e.g., =if(c3="red apple, "eat apple). I want to conditionally format a cell if the string "red apple" is within the formula. Note, I am not trying to conditionally format the result of the cell; I'm trying to conditionally format based on what's within the formula of the cell.
