    Conditional Formatting

    Hey Guys need some help,

    I have an array im trying to do some conditional formatting on.

    i have 2 worksheets 1 with data im trying to get the conditional formatting to highlight using the other one to feed the values.

    I cant quite figure out the formula but it should be something like IF(B='Ready to HDC'!B & 'Ready to HDC'!H2 = 100% & 'Ready to HDC'!I2 <> 0) then turn green else do nothing.

    but its not working, any idea on the correct way to syntax this?

    Re: Conditional Formatting

    Hi,

    Assuming that your ranges START at B2, highlight all rows that you want conditionally formatted in column B, and then use this formula:
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    and then choose your formats.

    Just a note on the second condition also...I have used "=1", but this assumes that you have values formatted as percentages (i.e. 1 = 100%), but if you have text that says "100%", then change this condition to
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    Hope this helps

    Re: Conditional Formatting

    If that's the case, I guess the only thing you can do is create a duplicate of your B, H and I columns from your Ready to HDC sheets (='Ready to HDC'!B1 and drag down etc.) to the sheet where the formatting is done
    When I say semicolon, u say comma!
