Re: Cell fill color



One cell.........multiple conditions?

Don't use CF, try event code.

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim Num As Long
With Me.Range("A1")
If IsNumeric(.Value) Then
Select Case .Value
Case Is <= 0: Num = 4 'bright green
Case 0 To 5: Num = 6 'yellow
Case 6 To 10: Num = 5 'blue
Case 11 To 15: Num = 7 'magenta
Case 16 To 20: Num = 46 'orange
Case Is > 20: Num = 3 'red
End Select
End If
Sheets("Sheet1").Range("B1").Interior.ColorIndex = Num
End With
End Sub

This code will be placed in Sheet2 and will color A1 of Sheet1

Right-click on the Sheet2 tab and "View Code". Copy/paste into that sheet
module. Adjust cell refs and Case limits to suit.

Hi Gordon conditional formatting worked good for me but it has limit of 3
conditions and i have more than 3 conditions to use. Is there any other
alternative.

I appreciate your help.
