I'm seriously stuck on this one.
The column "N" is times my drivers are supposed to be at their cars.
The column is highlighted yellow, showing me how many more runs my drivers have for the day.
In N3 I want to put a number (for example 4) that's how many trucks I have ready to be sent out.
How would I be able to use the number in "N3" and it will take the yellow highlights and make them green letting me know that my shipments are safe until a certain time?
Keep in mind that I have a top section and a bottom section, but I need them both to work together.
Thanks

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
Do you mean you want to know how many time slots are available for the remainder of the day that can meet your remaining deliveries?
Will you be entering a time value somewhere to do the comparison, or do you want the system time?

How do you enter the time values in Cells N4:N12, etc? Just hh:mm or is a a complete date? Do you ever go across midnight to a new day?

what is the value in cell $A$1 that you are comparing your counts to?

okay. I had to develop this with a fixed time value instead of now. So you'll need to update cell references and the NOW() value as appropriate.
This will highlight all times after your time check value that where the count of those is >= to your count check in row 3.
Conversely it will highlight in RED ALL times in the column above the time check count that are a>= to your count check in row 3.

Sorry, Let me explain it better.
$D$1 =MOD(NOW(),1)
What I want to do is have a number in Cell "A2". That number would be how many trucks are ready to hit the road, (ie 10)
I want a way to take the "10" lowest numbers that are Highlighted in yellow (they have a conditional format already to make them yellow) and make them green

Can you not just use the built in conditional format function for bottom 10 items for this?

will you ever have any values in the highlighted yellow column that is less than result of the formula in D1?

This will not work as the "10" is not a constant and will change depending on the # of trucks I have ready to go
