I need help with my conditional formatting.
I have data from A5 through I56. Columns D,F,and H are the only columns with which the user will enter data. The other columns are eithe labels or calculed cells.
I am trying to write a conditional formatting formula based below, but yet it doesnt seem to work correctly.
if looking at row 5, I want:
=If(D5<>"",1,0)
and if looking at row 6, I want:
=if(D6<>"",1,0)
so on and so worth though the entire range up till row 56.
And if true, then 'grey' out range A through I with grey fill.
My try was to try it for the range of A5 through I5 and write =If(D5<>"",1,0) with my format, and then just copy that rule for the entire range.....but the result is incorrect. When I write this rule and place a value in D5, it greys out A5 through F5, not through I5 as requested.
Sampel worksheet attached. Sheet1 is my tab with data. I also have another tab label INCORRECT OUTPUt and this just shows what happens with my current formula. And I also have a DESIRED OUTPUT to help show what I need.
Thanks for looking at this with me.
