Question : Excel 2003 VBA - Color Cells depending on character length
Hello Experts,
I have a master worksheet and a secondary spreadsheet. The Master is called Property.xls, the secondary is called ETL.xls.
I have created a very simple macro that copies columns of information from Property.xls to ETL.xls.
In the ETL workbook, the columns have a heading which states number of allowed characters, Eg A6 has Character 8 as a heading, E6 has Character 50 as a heading.
Is there anyway to do a sanity check on the data, once copied and pasted, so that any cells not matching the criteria are coloured?
Eg if any cells copied into column A were 9 characters or over, the cell would color Red. Cells copied to column E would colour red if they exceeded 50 characters?
Apologies for the convoluted post.
TIA

try conditional formatting with following formula A$1 will be the row with allowed number of characters
=LEN(A2)>A$1
(select all the cells where formatting applies)
