    Colour Coding

    Hi All,

    I'm not sure if this has been asked/answered before.

    I have a spreadsheet which has a whole bunch of data I need to color code.

    I have attached a sample.

    Basically, what i need to do is for the sysem to assign color codes to each data based on the numeric reason code i assign to them.

    I would also like to have a set color and reason code assigned to the data when I first paste them in, i.e. Green (code 1)

    If anyone can assist me with this I would greatly appreciate it.

    Hi,

    Your best bet is conditional formatting (Home -->Conditional Formatting). Highlight the columns with the reasons and set the number. You can set several rules for the same columns (each with a special color).

    Hope this helps.
