Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications System Error &H8000FFFF (-2147418133). Catastrophic failure.
Hi All: I created a spreadsheet with the following VBA: Function SumColor(MatchColor As Range, sumRange As Range) As Double Dim cell As Range Dim myColor As Long myColor = MatchColor.Cells(...
To color code the events based on the year in which they occurred in Excel, you can use conditional formatting. Here's how you can do it:
- Select the range of cells containing the dates: Highlight the range of cells in the "Deposit Date" and "EF Date" columns where you want to apply conditional formatting.
- Apply conditional formatting: Go to the "Home" tab in Excel, click on "Conditional Formatting" in the ribbon, and then select "New Rule..."
- Create a new formatting rule: In the "New Formatting Rule" dialog, choose "Use a formula to determine which cells to format".
- Enter the formula: You'll need to create a formula that checks the year of each date and compares it to the year you want to color code. For example, if you want to color code events for the year 2022:
- For "Deposit Date": Enter the formula =YEAR($A1)=2022 (assuming "Deposit Date" starts from cell A1).
- For "EF Date": Enter the formula =YEAR($C1)=2022 (assuming "EF Date" starts from cell C1).
Adjust the cell references in the formula as per your actual data range.
- Set the formatting: Click on the "Format..." button to choose the formatting style you want to apply to the cells meeting the condition. You can choose a fill color under the "Fill" tab.
- Repeat for other years: Repeat steps 2-5 for each year you want to color code.
By following these steps, you can color code the events based on the year in which they occurred in your Excel sheet. You can customize the formatting and the years as per your requirements. This method allows you to visually distinguish events from different years, making it easier for managers to analyze the data.
