Based on the weekday, I want the correct day to light up.
Screenshot of what I'm trying to accomplish
Use the following formula in the conditional formatting tab:
=IF(WEEKDAY(TODAY(),2)=1,"Monday",IF(WEEKDAY(TODAY(),2)=2,"Tuesday",IF(WEEKDAY(TODAY(),2)=3,"Wednesday",IF(WEEKDAY(TODAY(),2)=4,"Thursday",IF(WEEKDAY(TODAY(),2)=5,"Friday",IF(WEEKDAY(TODAY(),2)=6,"Saturday",IF(WEEKDAY(TODAY(),2)=7,"Sunday",)))))))
Please use Text contains as the option (you're also free to use Text is exactly option as well):

I have a table that looks like this:
some text 14.09.2022
some text 15.09.2022
some text 23.10.2022
And I need to conditionally format each cell in the second column if the date in that cell is during the current week.
I have tried different solutions from the Internet[^1], but neither works for me: each time Google Sheets says my formulas are wrong. Any help?
[^1]: For example, I have tried to adopt the formula found here.
Try below custom formula in CF rule.
=WEEKNUM($C2)=WEEKNUM(TODAY())
Essentially just as the title says, I'm making a task list with a "Finished" category that has checkboxes. The way I currently have it set up is that, with the conditional formatting, when you hit the checkbox, the entire row gets grayed out as the task has been completed.
Since it's a big list, however, I don't want to have to go through and do the conditional format rule for each and every row as it descends. I thought I could just do the normal drag down thing but when I try to, it doesn't change to the appropriate cell number in the formula that's in the conditional formatting rule.
I've attached some screenshots of what I'm talking about so, if anyone can help me figure out how to do that, that'd be amazing, thank you!
What the sheet looks like
Conditional Formatting Rule
Set the range to B3:J100 (or whatever range you want the CF to be applied to) and use as a custom formula
=$K3=TRUE
This rule should work for all the rows in the dedicated range.
I want to highlight the cell with a color of a cell (range G24:G90) if it contains a G4 cell value (dynamic). What is the best way for this?
The best way for us to answer is, when you add samples of what you've tried and what result you get.
Although as much i understood from your short description, you can select those range you mentioned and click on "Conditional Formatting" and on the "Formula Rules" section select "Custom Formula" and type something like this based on your requirement:-
=$G24=$G$4
You can do Formatting Style based on what you like.

I'm trying to make a column change color whenever a specific range within that same column has the same character, per example, I want cells C1:C50 to change to the color green when all the cells in C10:C50 have the value 1 on them.
I've tried this custom formula, that doesn't seem to work.
=C10:C50=CHAR(10004)
Sorry if this is an easy fix, but have been looking for answers and haven't found something that suits my problem
This should get you what you're after:
Select the rows you want the conditional format to apply to.
Click format > conditional formatting
Click + Add another rule
Below "Format Rules" click the drop down and select Is equal to
Type what you want the box to be equal to in the input (for example, "1" in your case)
Click the "Done" button.
Behold your beautifully formatted sheet and the new found power that you wield!
try:
=COUNTIF(C$10:C$50, CHAR(10004))=50
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.
