Hi,

The below is a sample Gantt chart that I'm using, it's working fine, what I want to do is when the STATUS is completed (Column H) goes from a cross to a tick (I'm using the format of Wingdings 2 - cross is O and tick is P) is to change the Gantt chart colour from it's current colour of green to say orange. In conditional formatting (in cell I3) I have, formula is =AND(I$2>=$F3,I$2<=$G3).

Is there a way I can add an additional conditional format or would this be a VBA? Any help would be appreciated.

I'll take a stab, in H3 couldn't you add =IF(NOW()>=G3,"p","o") and then add 1 more rule to your conditional format to include the output of that cell?

You just need to determine what the value of the wingding is and set up a primary condition (conditional format) to test for that value in H.

Hi thanks for that, that wont work as Column H is controlled by the users when they complete the task, most times it's completed before or even after the end date...

Probably for the conditional format criteria:
=($H3="p")

Or:
=($H3="P")

I should think anyway...in each of the cells that should be orange/green. If there's multiple criteria the first to evaluate to true takes precedence.

Does that help?

Just tried the above, not sure what I'm supposed to do with the above...

Any suggestions or any other ways?
