Hi,

Does any have the 'VB knowhow' to highlight a row(s) that contain a certain value?

The range is c2:c200 & if it contains any of the following keywords:-

base test completed OK - light green\bold

base test completed failure - Light red\bold

base test on test - light yellow\bold

thank you 'kind person' & i look forward to your reply.

Thank you Rick,

mumps got in 1st & apart from
the only issue I could find is that if a cell that previously had triggered the 'colour' change, if I remove\edit\remove the value , the applicable row remains 'coloured filled' where I thought it would be 'blanked filled'

all seems good?

Thank you for ALL your help & hope you have a great Christmas .

Kindest regards

Excel Facts

Show numbers in thousands?
Use a custom number format of #,##0,K. Each comma after the final 0 will divide the displayed number by another thousand
To take care of the blanks, try:
Code:
Sub ColorRows()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Dim rng As Range
    For Each rng In Range("C2:C200")
        Select Case rng.Value
            Case "Build Completed"
                With Range("A" & rng.Row).Resize(1, 24)
                    .Interior.ColorIndex = 4
                    .Font.Bold = True
                End With
            Case "Swapped-Out"
                With Range("A" & rng.Row).Resize(1, 24)
                    .Interior.ColorIndex = 3
                    .Font.Bold = True
                End With
            Case "Build Started"
                With Range("A" & rng.Row).Resize(1, 24)
                    .Interior.ColorIndex = 6
                    .Font.Bold = True
                End With
            Case "Device Not Received"
                With Range("A" & rng.Row).Resize(1, 24)
                    .Interior.ColorIndex = 28
                    .Font.Bold = True
                End With
            Case "Emailed Requested For SCCM Check"
                With Range("A" & rng.Row).Resize(1, 24)
                    .Interior.ColorIndex = 38
                    .Font.Bold = True
                End With
            Case "Desktop UAD - On Hold ATM"
                With Range("A" & rng.Row).Resize(1, 24)
                    .Interior.ColorIndex = 44
                    .Font.Bold = True
                End With
            Case "Device With Build Engineer"
                With Range("A" & rng.Row).Resize(1, 24)
                    .Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
                    .Font.Bold = False
                End With
            Case ""
                With Range("A" & rng.Row).Resize(1, 24)

Here is my code modified (and a couple of bugs fixed) that will do what you are requesting for your new status text values and colors. I also separated the code that handles each individual status value with empty lines... you should be able to use any one of them as a guide should you need to add more status checks in the future.
Code:
[table="width: 500"]
[tr]
	[td]Sub ColorRows()
  Application.ScreenUpdating = False
  On Error Resume Next
  With Range("C3:C300")
    .Offset(, -2).Resize(, 26).Interior.ColorIndex = xlColorIndexNone
    .Offset(, -2).Resize(, 26).Font.Bold = False
  
    .Replace "Build Completed", "=Build Completed", xlWhole, , False, , False, False
    With Intersect(.SpecialCells(xlFormulas).EntireRow, Columns("A:X"))
      .Interior.ColorIndex = 4
      .Font.Bold = True
    End With
    Columns("C").Replace "=", "", xlPart
    
    .Replace "Build Started", "=Build Started", xlWhole, , False, , False, False
    With Intersect(.SpecialCells(xlFormulas).EntireRow, Columns("A:X"))
      .Interior.ColorIndex = 6
      .Font.Bold = True
    End With
    Columns("C").Replace "=", "", xlPart

Okay, I reduced the size of my macro by using an array to hold each individual status text followed by a pipe (|) symbol in a quoted comma delimited list... that way I can iterate the array thereby reducing the overall size of my macro. Here is that revised code...
Code:
[table="width: 500"]
[tr]
	[td]Sub ColorRows()
  Dim X As Long, Status As Variant, Parts() As String
  Status = Array("Build Completed|4", "Build Started|6", "Device Not Received|33", "Device With Build Engineer|-4142", "Emailed Requested For SCCM Check|39", "Swapped-Out|38", "Desktop UAD - On Hold ATM|45")
  Application.ScreenUpdating = False
  On Error Resume Next
  With Range("C3:C300")
    .Offset(, -2).Resize(, 26).Interior.ColorIndex = xlColorIndexNone
    .Offset(, -2).Resize(, 26).Font.Bold = False
  
    For X = LBound(Status) To UBound(Status)
      Parts = Split(Status(X), "|")
      .Replace Parts(0), "=" & Parts(0), xlWhole, , False, , False, False
      With Intersect(.SpecialCells(xlFormulas).EntireRow, Columns("A:X"))
        .Interior.ColorIndex = Parts(1)
        .Font.Bold = True
      End With

Thats it................fan tas tic !!

i did a wee tweak here & there ( shortened the length from 24 to 22.

The above is what i am now using... including tweaks. There is also additional code which is to change from\to UPPER\lower\Proper Case.

Many thanks for all the help & hope you have a great Christmas....ho,ho,hoooo:beerchug::beerchug::beerchug:

hi Rick,

I was in process of replying when i just received your last post.

Yeah i tried your code, but when it ran, it 'blanked' everything... i don't know why, and hence why i used mumps.

thank you very much and hope you have a great Christmas.

hi Rick,

The only way I can think of that my code would do that is if the cells in Column C contained formulas rather than constants (which I took your answer in Message #7 to mean it didn't). Other than that, I do not think my code can "blank" out any other type of cells. Any chance you can post your workbook to DropBox so that I (we) can take a look at your actual data? By the way, just so you know, I tested code I posted in Message #24 before posting it and it worked perfectly in my XL2010 Excel program.
