I'm working on a simple list (see example above) where a cells background color changes (in a simple traffic light system) in both the Total (column D) and Name (column A) when the cell value in D has certain numeric values, that is:
I've used a conditional formatting sequence using MS Excel 2010 to highlight cells in D. However, how do i create a sequence or code so that the corresponding cell in A of the same row is colored the same way? For example, if D2 is Green then I want A2 to be Green as well?
How do i do this?
1.Select Cell A2
2.Click Conditional Formatting>Manage Rules>New Rule>'Use a formula to determine which cells to format'
3i)Enter formula =D2>=1000
and set format to green fill
3ii)Click New Rule>'Use a formula to determine which cells to format' and enter =AND(D2<=999,D2>=500)
and selecter format as amber fill
3iii)Click New Rule>'Use a formula to determine which cells to format' and enter =D2<500
and set format to red fill
4.Click Ok
5.Copy Cell A2 and paste formats down to A3:Ax
6.Repeat steps 1 - 5 above but use cell D2 instead of A2
