    Conditional formatting relying on a number of other factors

    Hi

    I have been wracking my brain trying to figure this one out.

    Please see the sample attached to see what I am talking about, it is hard to explain.

    Using Conditional Formatting, I am trying to get a name to highlight if that person has not completed an induction for a project.

    The name I want to highlight is in Column G under 'Team 1'

    The 'induction' is defined by the first 3 digits of the Project Number in 'area 2' (L6)

    So I need the cell containing the name in Column G to refer to the table in area 1 to see if the name has conducted an induction (identified as a tick if they have completed it)

    So in the sample 'name 1' should return a red cell value and 'name 2' should remain clear.

    I really hope someone can understand this and help

    Thank you in advance.

    Nicole

    Re: Conditional formatting relying on a number of other factors

    I sure there are plenty of other ways to do this, but here is 1 suggestion for your CF rule....
    =VLOOKUP(K9,C9:D15,MATCH(LEFT($L$6,3),$C$8:$G$8,0),0)=""
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
