Hello

I am attempting to do a complicated "for me" conditional format. I want to be able to highlight any ratings on a separate spreadsheets column (E) based on the column A and I of the rating and column B and J if its greater than 0. I am not about to move these columns. The issue is column E on the separate sheet has different variables at the end of the ratings, ranging from 1,2,3,sn,an,cn,fn and c, cs. The formula would have to be able to turn any rating green on the E column of the other sheet regardless of the variable endings. I have posted the A and B columns first ant the E column of the other sheet as well. Please help Thank you.

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.
@ CA_Punit
I am not sure what you mean by BAZ1. But if you are saying if AZ on sheet two has a value greater than 0 than on sheet one that rating should be highlighted regardless if its AZ1, AZ2, AZ3, or whatever comes after the Z.

@ Fluff
Just two questions based on what your formula and what I think might have played a factor. The other columns on sheet 1 have additional info in them. I had do deleted it as I thought it was not required. The question is can I put your code on sheet two and it still work? And the second question, sheet one is a short listing of ratings, they can get up to the 380th row in which the information is copied and pasted on sheet one frequently. Would this affect your formula based on the structure of it?

I meant say you have value AZ in sheet 2 which has value greater than zero

And in sheet 2 you have say a word BAZ1. Should BAZ1 be highlighted as AZ is there is BAZ1.

I hope that I am answering this the way I understand your question. There is no BAZ1. This might be a typo as I went to look for it but did not see it.

However, IF BAZ1 was a rating it the formula would only count BAZ if it was a rate.

The conditional formatting needs to go on Sheet1 in order to highlight the ratings. If you have other information on that sheet, the formula in col F can easily go in another column.

I suppose your condition will require "&" Operator and might not support Conditional Formatting directly. So with Helper column i have tried to incorporate all the conditions
