here I have a sheet in which there is a calendar and in that I need to highlight some days according to some names. If we tick on a name we need to highlight some days in that calendar. Instructions are there in the sheet and an example is also there in the Sheet 2. Please take a look.

Thanks in advance
For row 3 set the range to A3:G3 and use this custom formula
= (A$3<>"")*($I$3=TRUE)
Add a rule for every row, updating the range and the custom formula. So for row 4 the range would be A4:G4 and the custom formula
= (A$4<>"")*($I$4=TRUE)
Also see the tab 'JPV' where you see these formulas applied.
See if that works?

I'm trying to highlight cells based on a range of dates so that one can visually see from what month to what month one unit plan takes.
Please see this page (row 9) as a reference: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VDE1IdRJ7EB59NDos_A7DEUBm5LA75akbqiRVoH5IkI/edit#gid=222884255&range=G9
For example, if a unit goes from 4/2023 to 6/2023, I'd like April, May, and June boxes to be highlighted. I used the "custom formula" option in conditional formatting and input this formula:
=AND(($G$9:$R$9>=$E9),($G$9:$R$9<=$F9))
However, nothing is lighting up for me. The dates I'm using come from another Sheet (Grade 7). Could that be an issue?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Hoping to see highlighted cells but the colors are not showing up.
I tried this formula: =AND(($G$9:$R$9>=$E9),($G$9:$R$9<=$F9))
Your sheet is not public, from what I guess, you may try with next formula for the whole range. It will automatically expand G to R:
=AND((G$9>=$E9),(G$9<=$F9))
I'm relatively new to using google sheets and formulas and what not.
I am trying to highlight a row of cells using conditional formatting based on whether or not a name and date are both present in another range of cells.
In the case of the names, I need an exact match which I have figured out already easily enough.
In the case of the dates, I need it to highlight only if the leftDate is less than(prior) or equal to the rightDate displayed in another range of cells.
For example,
Names and Dates
In the left section of the sheet, the row containing Jacob should be highlighted due to his name being present in the right section of the sheet AND the date being prior.
Where as Nicks row in the left section of the sheet would not be highlighted due to the date being after.
Andrews row on the left would be highlighted due to having the same date.
Mikes row would not due to his name not being present on the right section.
so far for comparing the names I am using a COUNTIF function, and to enable both names and dates to function I have it nested in an AND function, like so
=AND(COUNTIF(leftNames = rightNames),COUNTIF(leftDates>=rightDates in relation to name))
The name portion works it is the date portion I am struggling with, sorry for the long winded explanation. Any help is appreciated!
Thanks
try for range A3:D:
=INDEX(IF($B3<VLOOKUP($A3, $F$3:$G, 2, 0), 1,
MATCH($A3&$B3, $F$3:$F&$G$3:$G, 0)))
I'm looking to limit the number of cells that can have the same value in a column.
More precisely, I'm keeping track of people signed up for meeting dates and once four other people are assigned that date, it not to be an option anymore or highlight the cell in red? Something to alert that the meeting is already full.
Thanks in advance for any help or advice.
If highlighting the cell in red would be enough, then you can use this custom formula in your Conditional Format Rules.
Apply to range = A1:A
Custom Formula:
=countif(A:A,A1)>=4
What it does?
Increment a counter if duplicates are found in the given range using COUNTIF()
If the number of duplicates are >= 4 then set the background color of the cell to red
Sample:
Another variation if you have a different list of available dates to highlight and a list of booked dates
Apply to range = A1:A
Conditional Formatting Custom Formula:
=countif(C:C,A1)>=4
Highlighting of cells will only be applicable in Column A. It will check how many duplicates data in Column A exist in Column C using COUNTIF()
I would like to highlight every row where the numbers in Columns F and G match. This works perfectly, with text (a-z), as answered in this thread:
Google Sheets Conditional Formatting based on two cells
But, I am not sure how to make it work when it's a number. Any advice appreciated!
Apply custom-formula conditional formatting of =$F1=$G1 to the whole range you wish to affect.
Change the 1's to the row number that is the first row in your selected range. E.g. If applying to A5:H, the formula would be =$F5=$G5.
I have a spreadsheet that has dates in row 1 and data in the rows below it. I want to highlight the entire column that has a date that is today, or within the last 7 days.
I've been searching and I keep finding examples of how to highlight a row, but not a column.
Please try selecting all cells and: Format - Conditional formatting..., Custom formula is and:
=and(A$1>today()-7,A$1<today()+1)
with highlighting of your choice. Done.
In this case the row is anchored, I agree more usual to anchor ($) the column.
