N Noelsy Dec 1, 2007 #1 Excel: In an if statement can i change cell fill or background color if correct
G Gord Dibben Dec 1, 2007 #2 Noit in the cell formula but you can use Conditional Formatting to change the color of the cell. Format>Conditional Formatting:Formula is =A1="Noelsy" Format to a color. If A1 contains Noelsy the cell will be colored. If it contains Gord it will not be colored. Or for this simple example CF>Cell Value is equal to Noelsy would return the color if true.
