Hi,

I need to turn a full row green for example
when a date is input in column N.
I’m not bothered about what the date is as long as it has a date in to show the works
complete as everyone keeps forgetting to select the complete option I currently have, if it went green when a date was input it would save a lot of hassle!

I have it setting to go green currently when ‘complete’ is selected in column T but people forget and input a date so I would like to add the formatting in for this.

Thanks

Welcome to the Board!

Dates in Excel are stored as numbers, specifically the number of days since 1/1/1900.
So if you wanted to check to see if row 2 should be colored, you would select all of row 2 and enter in this Conditional Formatting formula:
Excel Formula:
=$N2>0

Brill thank you, can I ask how I change back a column to only allow one selection on a drop down? I have list 1-5 but it’s adding a selection in, I need it to replace not add

That is an entirely different question, and as such, should be posted it in a new thread so it appears as a new unanswered question in the "Unanswered threads" listing.
