Conditional formatting

Can you format a whole row by colour even though the criteria is only in one column?

RE: Conditional formatting

Hi Jenny

Thanks for your question

Please could you expand a little on your question. Are you looking to format a whole range based on the value in a single cell.
So for example if the first cell in the row contains a particular value, then the whole row is formatted?

Thanks

Stephen

Excel tip:

Convert Text into Number

Some times numbers maybe imported in as text or you maybe concatenating numbers that form a text string that now are treated, because you had to extract them by Text functions

To convert Text into Number just encase the relevant cell reference or formula in the TEXT function. See Converting American Date to European hint

eg TEXT(Ref) or TEXT(formula)
