Hi Forum,

I'm reach out to you to ask if someone can help suggest improvement to a function for conditional formatting.
I created a calendar where I can plan resources by entering the number of days and the following cells are colored by using conditional formatting.

This far I have only been able to solve the problem by IFS-function and have a ugly solution for up to 21 days. I would like to expend the range to whatever really.
The cells are only to be colored for integer values.

Present formula:
=IFS( AND(ISNUMBER(OFFSET(E13;0;-20));OFFSET(E13;0;-20)>20);1; AND(ISNUMBER(OFFSET(E13;0;-19));OFFSET(E13;0;-19)>19);1; AND(ISNUMBER(OFFSET(E13;0;-18));OFFSET(E13;0;-18)>18);1; AND(ISNUMBER(OFFSET(E13;0;-17));OFFSET(E13;0;-17)>17);1; AND(ISNUMBER(OFFSET(E13;0;-16));OFFSET(E13;0;-16)>16);1; AND(ISNUMBER(OFFSET(E13;0;-15));OFFSET(E13;0;-15)>15);1; AND(ISNUMBER(OFFSET(E13;0;-14));OFFSET(E13;0;-14)>14);1; AND(ISNUMBER(OFFSET(E13;0;-13));OFFSET(E13;0;-13)>13);1; AND(ISNUMBER(OFFSET(E13;0;-12));OFFSET(E13;0;-12)>12);1; AND(ISNUMBER(OFFSET(E13;0;-11));OFFSET(E13;0;-11)>11);1; AND(ISNUMBER(OFFSET(E13;0;-10));OFFSET(E13;0;-10)>10);1; AND(ISNUMBER(OFFSET(E13;0;-9));OFFSET(E13;0;-9)>9);1; AND(ISNUMBER(OFFSET(E13;0;-8));OFFSET(E13;0;-8)>8);1; AND(ISNUMBER(OFFSET(E13;0;-7));OFFSET(E13;0;-7)>7);1; AND(ISNUMBER(OFFSET(E13;0;-6));OFFSET(E13;0;-6)>6);1; AND(ISNUMBER(OFFSET(E13;0;-5));OFFSET(E13;0;-5)>5);1; AND(ISNUMBER(OFFSET(E13;0;-4));OFFSET(E13;0;-4)>4);1; AND(ISNUMBER(OFFSET(E13;0;-3));OFFSET(E13;0;-3)>3);1; AND(ISNUMBER(OFFSET(E13;0;-2));OFFSET(E13;0;-2)>2);1; AND(ISNUMBER(OFFSET(E13;0;-1));OFFSET(E13;0;-1)>1);1; AND(ISNUMBER(E13);E13>0);1)

Perhaps a recursive formula, array-formula, completely different solution?
VBA is unfortunacty a no go since it is blocked from execution.

Best regards

How to create a cell-sized chart?
Tiny charts, called Sparklines, were added to Excel 2010. Look for Sparklines on the Insert tab.
Can you use an extra sheet as a kind off template for your CF-conditions?

With an extra sheet (and an empty column on the left on sheet CF DATA):

Yes, this is the kind of solution I'm looking for. Now only to adopt only to react to numbers, preferably integers, and leave with text unnoticed?

If you want to ignore text use
Excel Formula:
=LOOKUP(2,1/($C2:C2<>"")/(ISNUMBER($C2:C2)),$C2:C2)+LOOKUP(2,1/($C2:C2<>"")/(ISNUMBER($C2:C2)),COLUMN($C2:C2)-COLUMN($C2))>=COLUMNS($C2:C2)
