I am trying to write a formula that will cover A3:AB311, where col f:L has checkboxes and N:AB have dates that are filled in. I want to highlight the entirety of a row if all the boxes in F:L are checked and there is text in each cell in N:AB.
Here is the formula that I have come up with but it only highlights F:L and even then just whichever ones are checked, not if all are checked.
=AND($F3:$L3 = TRUE, NOT(ISBLANK($N3:$T3)), NOT(ISBLANK($V3:$AB3)))
here is a scrubbed version of the doc that I am working with.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15lsA-by2vJOzp8N-_9NxLkkSmYPMAvRcVQ9Gb7KMj-Y/edit?usp=sharing
Line 31 is the only one that should be highlighted
Id really appreciate any assistance you guys could offer, ive been working on this off and on for a few days now.
You can use this formula:
=AND($F3:$L3,counta($N3:$T3)=columns($N3:$T3),counta($V3:$AB3)=columns($V3:$AB3))

To be more specific, I want the Conditional Formatting to check the content of the cell that is currently being formatted and be dynamic as I copy-paste the Conditional Formatting into another cell, without having to manually fiddle with the formula again.
So what I'm doing is this (using an example):
I have a list of foods categorized by type (Fruits, vegetables, etc...) and every week the list changes, so its not possible to add "hard values" to formulas, it has to be a cell reference under the category.
Which means that under the category "fruits" for example, in week 1 i can have: banana, apple and peach but totally different fruits another week.
Anyways, I also want to create a calendar with the days in the week, where I put 4 drop-down menus which correspond to the 4 types of food. The drop down menus update as I update the initial list of avaiable foods.
Now down to the real issue.
I want that the cell used for the drop down menu to take an specific color when the content of that cell contains a food inside a given category.
For example, I select Apple, it checks for the apple and applies the apple color to the cell.
I acheived this with this
=COUNTIF(A4:A6, INDIRECT("RC","FALSE"))
I found someone online using the INDIRECT("RC","FALSE") value to "reference" the current cell but its not working for me...
A4:A6 is the range of fruits and it will give the red color to the apple because i defined it in Conditionnal formatting.
Now when I copy the conditional formatting is not working for the other apples and I want to make it work for others, just by checking if the current cell contains a value in a range of cells, without manually changing the current cell for every cell.

This is my google spreadsheet, please help ! I'm not sure if I can understand better. This is for a much bigger project and really need the help.
Current cell for conditional formatting is left top most cell in Apply to range range.
In your case it is D11. So you should use following formula:
=COUNTIF($A$4:$A$6, D11)
Need some help. I'm currently making a Google Sheets, and I need some conditional formating. I need a row to be formatted with the condition on one of her cells.
For example, I need to formate A2:I2 with the formula =$H$2="No".
This was the easy part. I can do that.
The part that I fail is :
I have like 30 or 40 rows to formate like that, with the condition on the cell of the row. (H15 for A15:I15, H21 for A21:I21...). I tried to select the first row, copy it, and special past the formatting to another row, but Google makes some weird shit. It creates a new rule, but keep the previous cells range and add the currently selected. And the formula stays on the $H$2. I know it's because I put some $ in the name of the cell, but if I don't, it will not formating the entire row. Juste the first cell.
My question is :
How can I properly copy/paste the conditional formatting of the first row to the others one, with the condition correctly on the cell of each row, and keeping the formatting on the entire row?
The meaning of the $ sign is the following:
$H$2: it will lock that cell only,
H$2: it will lock that column,
$H2: it will lock that row (I think this is the one you are looking for),
So you can set the range to be: A2:I
And the formula to be: =$H2="No"
I am making a google sheet to track attendance for a team. I want the row with the name to highlight a specific color when a checkbox is on. I managed to write something that works for the specific row I'm working in, but any time I try to copy it over to other rows the range is just adjusted, so any time any checkbox from a column is on it highlights all the rows. Attached are pictures that show what I want it to do. I just need help figuring out how to copy this to other rows and keeping them all separated.
The code that is in each conditional formatting is this:
=$B2=True
=$C2=True
=or($D2,$E2)=True

I think the issue is with the code itself because when I copy it adds the new range, but the code stays the same.
your formulae are correct. change your range A2:E2 to A2:E - that will solve it
I have a google sheet that has multiple columns that I am marking Yes or No to keep track of certain details for a property. When all cells in each column are marked as "Yes" I would like to highlight (change the background color) for that entire row. I created a sample spreadsheet of what I am trying to do.

Figured it out and posting it in case someone else needs it. I ended up using this conditional formula:
=AND(ARRAYFORMULA(A$2={A$3:A$37}))
It worked for all the columns. I got lucky, but would love for someone to explain why it works :-)
I'm new to Google Sheets so would appreciate some assistance as my research has been unsucessful.
I have created a schedule with peoples names filling time slots. I have duplicated the sheet for the same layout to be able to create a print out that shows which time slots are available using just colours so as not to distribute the names listed. To do this I want to use conditional formating and show a colour in the cells (time slots) not yet filled.
I thought that the custom formula needs be something like... conditional formating for cell E14 on sheet "Schedule Printout"... ISBLANK('Schedule!E14') but this doesn't work.
Screen grab of the Conditional Formating dialog box
I have tried several different variations. If you have any ideas please can you let me know?
Thank you

See if this works
=INDIRECT("Schedule!E14")=""
I believe you have to use INDIRECT in conditional formatting when you want to reference a different sheet/tab.
