View Full Version : Is there an alternative way of doing conditional formatting using vba?
Is it possible to perform various calculations highlighting various cells with different colors, based on reults on a specific criteria that each time a figure is added to a column the answer will automate using visual basic, rather than doing conditional formatting? Because I have large sets of data and conditional formatting can be time consuming.
Thanks for your solutions:friends:

Use event code
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Const WS_RANGE As String = "H1:H5" '<<<< change to suit
On Error GoTo ws_exit
Application.EnableEvents = False
If Not Intersect(Target, Me.Range(WS_RANGE)) Is Nothing Then
Select Case Target
Case 1: Target.Interior.ColorIndex = 5
Case 2: Target.Interior.ColorIndex = 3
'etc
End Select
End If
ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
This is worksheet event code, which means that it needs to be
placed in the appropriate worksheet code module, not a standard
code module. To do this, right-click on the sheet tab, select
the View Code option from the menu, and paste the code in.
