Hello Chelle,
You can use conditional formatting as follows:-
- Select cell AA1
- In the ribbon, go to Conditional Formatting in the "Styles" group and click on the little down arrow.
- In the drop down selection that appears, select "Manage Rules".
- In the Conditional Formatting Rules Manager dialogue box that appears, select "New Rule". The New Formatting Rule dialogue box will then appear.
- Select "Use a formula to determine which cells to format".
- In the long oblong box with the title "Format values where this formula is true:", enter the following formula:
=$AA1="Not recorded"
then click on Format and, in the "Format Cells" dialogue box that appears, select the Fill tab and select the red colour.
- Click OK.
- You'll be taken back to the "New Formatting Rule" dialogue box. Click OK again.
- You'll now be taken back to the "Conditional Formatting Rules Manager" dialogue box.
- Over in the "Applies to" box, click on the little up arrow.
- Change the =$AA$1 reference to =$AB$1:$AD$1 then click on the little down arrow. Click Apply and then OK in the "Conditional Formatting Rules Manager" dialogue box that re-appears. DON'T FORGET TO USE THE $ SYMBOL.
In your worksheet, type in "Not recorded" (without the quotation marks of course) in cell AA1 and you'll note that cells AB1:AD1 will be coloured in red fill.
If you have a greater range to conditionally format, change the "Applies to" range from
=$AB$1:$AD$1 to, for example, =$AB$1:$AD$20 then click on Apply and OK again.
I hope that this helps.
Cheerio,
vcoolio.
