Hi Excel experts!
I would like to select a particular cell in the column and apply the format to the whole column using conditional formatting.
I tried it like this: =IF(CELL("contents";ADDRESS(9;COLUMN()))=0)
If true -> apply format to all the cell in the column
thanks!
To best describe or illustrate your problem you would be better off attaching a dummy workbook. The workbook should contain the same structure and some dummy data of the same type as the type you have in your real workbook - so, if a cell contains numbers & letters in this format abc-123 then that should be reflected in the dummy workbook.
To attach a file to your post,
click advanced (next to quick post),
scroll down until you see "manage file",
click that and select "add files" (top right corner).
click "select files" find your file, click "open" click "upload" click 'done" bottom right. click "submit reply"
Once the upload is completed the file name will appear below the input boxes in this window.
You can then close the window to return to the new post screen.
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

My dummy workbook:
Hi, there
First, CELL(info_type,reference) function requires a REFERENCE as the 2nd parameter while ADDRESS(row_num,column_num,abs_num,a1,sheet_text) function returns a TEXT; using =TYPE(ADDRESS(1,1)) =2, which means TEXT.
Secondly, why not just use =C2=0?
Try using something like this as your rule...
=B$8=TODAY()
Thanks for the information ThxAlot.
It's perfekt FDibbins!
