Hi everyone,

I have a VBA code that clears conditional formats and then enters them back in for when fellow employees jumble them up so to speak.

The only conditional format I have issues with is the one that states: Cell contains a blank value. I do not know how to write this in VBA

Here is what I want:

and here is what I get (which does not work):

I do not know how to write the code for Cell contains a blank value.

VBA Code:
   With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("2023")

With .Range("D3:D11010,F3:F11010").FormatConditions
.Add xlExpression, Formula1:="=LEN(TRIM(A2))=0"
.Item(.Count).Interior.PatternColorIndex = xlAutomatic
.Item(.Count).Interior.ThemeColor = xlThemeColorAccent4
.Item(.Count).Interior.TintAndShade = 0.399945066682943
.Item(.Count).StopIfTrue = False
End With

Help with this would be greatly appreciated! :)
 

Excel Facts

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
Your formula should refer to row 3 not row 2. Personally I would use:

VBA Code:
.Add Type:=xlCellValue, Operator:=xlEqual, Formula1:="="""""
