    Using an array and conditional formatting

    Hi all,

    I'm new to the forum, so "hello".

    I have a challenge, which i have attached a spreadsheet for advice. It's probably easier if you look at the spreadsheet, rather than me trying to explain. I've added some notes for reference.

    i've tried to use an IF/vlookup function but i cant seem to make it work.

    Any ideas or support is greatly appreciated.

    thanks,
    Sean

    Re: Using an array and conditional formatting

    I may be wrong with your intention.

    But if you simply want the cell to change to a certain colour depending on what number you enter.. then

    go to conditional formatting.
    -highlight cells rule
    -equal to
    e.g "3" or 3
    and choose colour.

    and that should work easy.

    Hi

    @kvsrinivasamurthy - Thank you so much! This is exactly what I wanted.
    I've had a look at the excel formula and ill try and reverse engineer this to understand how you built it.

    Have a great day.

    Cheers,
    Sean

    ha oh ok. I didn't realise when I saw the file again that someone else had edited it. I thought you re-sent it and I looked thinking "but its done? what does he want" lol

    Hi,

    I'm really sorry, I setup the file incorrectly.
    The axis was in the wrong place. I've tried to fix it for the past 30 minutes and can't get it right.
    Are you able to help out. I wont be making anymore changes.

    Thank you.
