I need a formula for conditional formatting that will highlight when an agent name in column E and a box number in column F matches with an agent name and the same box number in column G. I'm showing a box was checked out to an agent with that number and then when the same number shows up in the checked in column, the two numbers and agent name should highlight.

Part of the data table (B14:H27) has been set up for you. Particularly, C14 links to the initial loan term assumption D9 and cells D14:H14 are set based on the loan term decrement assumption D10; B15 links to the initial annual interest rate assumption B9 and cells B16:B27 are set based on the initial interest increment assumption B10. Please complete the Data Table set up to calculate the monthly payments (as positive numbers) at different interest rates (B15:B27) and loan terms (C14:H14). Note: the data table is designed to be flexible, i.e., it will update automatically for any changes in the loan assumptions A9:D10. Use Conditional Formatting to format C15:H27 such that all the monthly payments that are higher than the maximum allowable monthly payment in N5 are in red color.

I have created a gantt chart in Excel, that highlights the cells with a color, according to the amount of days an activity has. I use a Conditional Formatting (CF) formula on a group of cells (=OG(J$6>=$E7;J$6<$F7) ) for that. If the formula is true, then the cells change color. My problem is, that the calendar includes Saturdays and Sundays (weekends). How can I write a formula in CF that will jump the weekends and count the rest of the days on monday. Fx. An activity starts on a thursday and last 5 days, then it shall highlight T, F, M, T and W. In advance, thanks for the help.

Freeze the first row on the Fleet Information worksheet. Convert the data to a table, name the table Inventory, and apply the Table Style Medium 19. Remove duplicate records. Sort the table by Make in alphabetical order, add a second level to sort by Year Smallest to Largest, and a third level to sort by Sticker Price Smallest to Largest. Repeat the field names on all pages. Change page breaks so each vehicle make is printed on a separate page. Add a footer with your name on the left side, the sheet name code in the center, and the file name code on the right side. Click the Sales Information worksheet and convert the data to a table, name the table Sales, and apply the Table Style Dark 11. Type % of sticker in cell E1. Create a formula with structured references to calculate the percentage of the Sticker Price in column E. Format the range E2:E30 with Percent Style Number Format. Add a total row to display the Average of % of sticker and Sum of Sticker Price and Sale Price. AutoFit the width of columns B:E to show the total values. Apply Solid Fill Blue Data Bars conditional formatting to the % of sticker data. Select the range E2:E30 and create a new conditional formatting rule that uses a formula to apply yellow fill and bold font to values that sold for less than or equal to 70% of the sale price. On the First Quarter Sales worksheet, rename the table FirstQuarter. Filter the data to display January, February, and March sales. Add a footer with your name on the left side, the sheet name code in the center, and the file name code on the right side. Select Landscape orientation for all sheets.
