Hi
I want to use Repeat() to type "*". My question can I color these "*" to different color depends on the reading? Thank you.

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
Hi,

Yes ... you can have different colors ... but not using your Repeat() formula ...

You would have to use Conditional Formatting ...:)

Hope this will help

Thank you. CF with formula or just CF? Thank you.

You will need a formula in Cf for each colour

Thank you. The formula will count how many "*" right?

You can either use the LEN function, or use the value in the tmp col
