I'm new to Google Sheets, and I'm looking to get my C5 cell filled with green if its value is equal to my A5 cell's value.
Can anyone help me with it?
Right click on any cell in column C and then left click on conditional formatting. Choose the settings exactly as you see in the following screenshot and use the following custom formula:
=AND(C1=A1,C1<>"")

I'm trying to have Sheet 2's cell contents strikethrough if a cell in Sheet 1's checkbox has been selected using conditional formatting. I've been trying the custom formula =INDIRECT("'Sheet1'!A2")=TRUE but that seems to be doing nothing.
Here's a very basic example of what I want. Basically when an item on Sheet 1 is checked off I want the corresponding item on Sheet 2 to strikethrough.

I figured out the issue, since I had another conditional formatting rule on the sheet 2 cell it wasn't working.
I'm looking to make a planner, I would like to find the cell in another sheet called 'Main' that matches my cell A2.
The date would be in row 2 of which some are not dates.
I'm just looking to do conditional formatting based on that cell but can't seem to find out how to get the cell
any help would be welcome...
If you want to highlight the cell in Row 2 of the Main sheet, then you can highlight row 2 in the Main sheet and apply conditional formatting in the Main sheet using this formula:
=A$1=INDIRECT("Sheet1!$A$2")
Please note that the above formula assumes that the sheet containing reference date in A2 is named "Sheet1."
Is there a formula on spreadsheet that will remove the rows if the value of the cell is empty? For example =if(A2 = "","hide row A1", "show A1"). I am using Google Form and Form Publisher addons to generate new spreadsheet base on the value that I have inputted on my forms.
Or is there any way to do this?

Formulas are just Custom Functions return value(s), you need to solve that with Script or hide it manually.
Check that may help you
Hide Row in Google Sheets if Cell Contains "no" - Multiple Sheets
Filter Or Hide Row
Formulas just return a value or an array of values, they can't hide/show rows. You could use FILTER, QUERY among other combined Google Sheets functions to return just the need values.
Another alternate is the use of Google Apps Script
You cannot hide the row but can make its contents invisible. Use conditional formatting to change font color of entire row to 'white'
I have a google sheets document where I have cells A1:Z1. In AA1, I have a value total. If that value is greater than 5, I would like A1:Z1 to be highlighted in red. I then want to do this for every row down the sheet. Could somebody help be out with this? I tried using other answers here, but I can't get it to work.
First of all take a look at Use conditional formatting rules in Google Sheets.
On your computer, open a spreadsheet in Google Sheets.
Select the cells you want to apply format rules to (A1:Z1).
Click Format and then Conditional formatting. A toolbar will open to the right.
Under the "Format cells if" drop-down menu, click Custom formula is. If there's already a rule, click it or Add new rule > and then Custom formula is.
On custom formula put this =SUM(A1:Z1) > 5
Choose other formatting properties.
Click Done.
The result will be this.
I'm trying to reference the data from another sheet, but I'd like to be able to dynamically specify the Sheet name via a cell within this sheet.
Let's say cell A1 has the text "Sheet 1"
Instead of having my formula say:
=TRANSPOSE('Sheet 1'!F2:F121)
I need to find a way to insert the data from cell A1:
=TRANSPOSE('reference text from A1'!F2:F121)
Is there a way of doing this? I'm working in Google Sheets.
Does this formula work as you want:
=TRANSPOSE(INDIRECT(A1&"!F2:F121"))
