Hi.

New to Excel and was wondering if someone might be kind enough to lend me a hand🙂

I have an Excel Worksheet with 8 columns:
The first range is D1:D4 (All Text Values)

The range adjacent is D5:D8 (All Boolean values)

Conditional Formatting formula: If(D5 AND D6 AND D7 AND D8) = True, Highlight the 8 fields in light green, otherwise do not do anything...

If((E2:H2) = "True", FORMAT(A2:D2) light green,""))

Sorry.. this is probably a stupid question but I have been working on this and trying to figure it out but just cannot get the range A2:D2 to also be light green if the range D1:D4 all equal true.
Another idea I had is maybe it is easier to refenece the row ? For example, if the 4 columns are true then highlight the row to light green, otherwise leave the row as it is...

Thanks for taking the time to read my Post and I hope you have an awesome Thursday !!!

Oblio

I assume =4 is based on the value of True ? I kept trying to figure out how to bring the colour in as well... honestly, thanks and can I buy you a gift card or e-transfer ?

the number of TRUE in the count if
so as
$E2=TRUE,
AND $F2=TRUE,
AND $G2=TRUE,
AND $H2=TRUE)

so all 4 therefore hence the count of how many TRUE's there in in the range E:H , must be 4 for the condition to be TRUE and colour
I kept trying to figure out how to bring the colour in as well.
Not sure what you mean
conditional formatting the cell - when the formula is TRUE - so
countif()=4 will only be TRUE when the range has 4 true's and then colour

honestly, thanks and can I buy you a gift card or e-transfer ?
