Why not? It's Conditional formatting and we only applied two CFs, one for Formulas and one for Constants. You should be able to apply this to as many columns or ranges you want, unless you have more conditions in mind than you said, and if so what are they? The formula itself makes no difference, the condition is simply that a formula of any kind (or constant or nothing) is present in the cell. You can copy any cell you've applied this CF to already, then select any other range(s) and click Edit > Paste Special for Formats, them hit the Esc key to exit Copy mode. Maybe I am misunderstanding your follow-up question but on the face of it that is how I'd address t.katie1071 said:since this won't work on multiple columns
What a nice message, thank you very much for taking the time to post it.logixrat said:Tom,
I just wanted to say thanks for posting up your technique for shading of text and formula related cells. I am new to the forum, but someone referred me here and it is exactly the answer I needed. Very cool of you to post such great information.
Of all the Steps, 11 should be problem free because it is simply selecting a format option in the CF dialog. Something else is going on, either with what you did or did not do for Steps 1 through 10, or who knows what, but really it all does work. Instead of saying "it does not work", post a more precise description of what is or is not happening, and what exactly you did and what you expect the result to be, so someone reading this can assist.CA_User said:The tips worked for Katie but when I got to step #11, it does not work.
