Hi

What formula would i insert into the "Use a formula to determine which cells to format" for conditional Formatting

I highlighted range B3:F3 which i want to turn Green if the following is True. I used the following formula
Code:
=AND(D3="YES",E3="YES",F3="YES")

The only Cell green is B3. I need to highlight B3:F3 if true Green or RED if False

Thanks

Which Excel functions can ignore hidden rows?
The SUBTOTAL and AGGREGATE functions ignore hidden rows. AGGREGATE can also exclude error cells and more.
If you want to highlight B3:F3 in Green if =AND(D3="YES",E3="YES",F3="YES") returns TRUE and highlight B3:F3 in Red if =AND(D3="YES",E3="YES",F3="YES") returns FALSE, try this:

Highlight B3:F3 > Conditional Formatting > New Rule > Use a formula
=AND($D3="YES",$E3="YES",$F3="YES")
Format: Fill Green > OK > OK

Highlight B3:F3 > Conditional Formatting > New Rule > Use a formula
=AND($D3="YES",$E3="YES",$F3="YES")=FALSE
Format: Fill Red > OK > OK

Thank you

What would i need to add to the formula that if the range B3:F3 is blank. If blank/no text than that range is white

If say have it formatted Red and remove all the text the range B3:F3 will still remain Red

Thanks

You're welcome.

Change that second formula (the red formula) to this:

=AND(AND($D3="YES",$E3="YES",$F3="YES")=FALSE,COUNTBLANK($B3:$F3)<>5)
