Hi,

Good evening, need your help, it takes me a long time to search for a solution but unfortunately, I was not able to find it. 

This bothers me a lot cause my manager is asking me from time to time if I found the solution.

This is the scenario of my concern, I want cell B3, be automatically filled with Green when any cell between D3 to W3 is filled with Green.

Thanks in advance for your help.

 

Best regards,

Angelo deal Cruz

Hello,

If you want to create a formatting rule based on other cell values than the cells you want to format, you need to create a rule using a formula.

Select cells B3 to B8, create a new conditional formatting rule using a formula. As there are two conditions that needs to be met you need to use the OR function.
Formula: =OR($D3:$W3=TODAY(),$D3:$W3=TODAY()+1)

See attached file for an example.

Br,
Anders

Hi Sir Anders,

Good day.

Thank you for your help, very much appreciated. At last, I'm now free from my manager's follow-up.

 

Best regards,

Angelo
