Default How can I change the color of the cell when someone enter any number or character?


Hi,

I am trying to make a templet for my school project. The file has
number of questions with the answer YES and NO. If someone choose YES,
I want to change the cell background color to GREEN and if the answer
is NO, the color has to be RED.

Thank you,
Sajan

Select a cell where answer will be.
Format>Conditional Formatting
Set "Cell Value is" "equal to" and type "Yes" (without quotes) in the right
text box.
Select "Format" > "Patterns" tab and select green.
Click "Add"
Repeat above and typing "No" and selecting red.

Use Format Painter to distribute formatting to the other answer cells
