I would like cell IJK3 highlight itself at 20:00 then IJK4 become highlighted at 20:20 and for IJK3 to go back to being not highlighted at 20:20. At 20:40 I would like IJK5 to become highlighted then IJK4 to go back to being not highlighted. At 21:00 I would like for IJK6 to be highlighted and IJK5 not to be anymore then at 21:20 I would like IJK3 to go back to being highlighted. I need a formula to be able to do this.

Excel Facts

Which Excel functions can ignore hidden rows?
The SUBTOTAL and AGGREGATE functions ignore hidden rows. AGGREGATE can also exclude error cells and more.
You might set a conditional format on UK3 using the formula =INT(MINUTE(NOW())/20)=0
You shall use =1 and =2 fot the other two cells

However this will recalculate whenever there is a Calculation in the worksheet, so if nothing happens the format will not change. If you need it keep updating by itself you need to add a OnTime macro that update the sheet every XX seconds /Minutes
