Colour Cells Based on Value

[Plasticman1]

Hi all,

New to forum.
I need to know if it is possible to convert a numerical value to fill the same value number of cells.
For example if value is 1 then one cell is coloured, if value is 3 then 3 cells are filled with the same colour.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Not VBA savvy but willing to give it a go.

Yes, you can do this with Conditional Formatting.

See the attached sample workbook.

Thanks. It should help me on my way.
Its for a production schedule where each product will be calculated by hours to produce.
Then I can copy the coloured celled directly into a worksheet.
