I made a table in Excel and the inputs are going to be single letters. Is it possible to format the table so that, if a certain letter is inputted, the cell automatically changes to a specified colour???
Thanks, sorry if this isn't the right place to put this question.
Yes, you make use of conditional formatting.
Let's say your table is in A1:G5. Click on conditional formatting. Pick 'Highlight Cell Rules' and 'Equal To...'.
Insert the value you want to highlight and pick the highlight from the dropdown button.

I would like to add an icon to cells based on rule if another cell contains a value.
Here are cells which I want to format. On the left side I want to add icon in the right side of the cell if the cell in the column Note of the same row contains a value. For Example, "Formale Systeme" cell should have that icon because there is a note "2" in that row.
Here is an example how it should look.
Cells on the left side are D7-D66 and cells on the right side are I7-I66

I want to select a whole column for a formula in excel.
I know I can do this, for example:
=AVERAGE(B4:B54)
which would give me the average of the cells from B4 to B54 but I want to reference the whole B column.
How can I do this?
To reference an entire column in Excel, use this syntax:
=AVERAGE(B:B)

I have a sheet like below:
I want to be able to SUM the Value fields if there is a tick next to that person's name, you will see each name has a value and if they attended that week and have a tick then include this value in the sum. I want to populate the Collected Field to show how much was collected that week.
I have tried SUMIF on a range but with no success.
Thanks in advance
SUMIF should work if you want to do it for each week, e.g. in C22 copied across
=SUMIF(C5:C19,"x",$B5:$B19)
replace the "x" with the specific character you are using to get the tick

I have some text AND a date (seperated by a hyphen) in one excel cell e.g. "Anniversary - 12/12/2012"
I want to be able to read the date only and if it is greater than the current date - the cell should become highlighted.
Can this be done via excel functions or do I need to write some VBA?
MC
Mark the area with all values, and chose "Conditional Formatting". Select "More Rules" from "Highlight Cells Rules" and select "Use a formula to determine which cells to format". Put this formula in the rule description field:
=DATEVALUE(MID($A1,FIND(" - ",$A1)+3,10))>TODAY()
Don't forget to chose the formatting options with "Format..."

I need help setting up an Excel-Formula.
I have two tables that I need to compare in order to multiply the currency rate of table2 with the amount of table1 depending on the date of table1 matching the date field of table2.
If you have a look at the screenshot I made I think you will understand what I want to do: Image
Hope you can help me set up a formula for this. If you need the excel-file for testing I uploaded it to zoho. Link
This should do it:
=IF(ISNA(A3*INDEX($F$2:$H$13,MATCH(1,(B3=$G$2:$G$13)*(C3=$F$2:$F$13),0),3)),A3,A3*INDEX($F$2:$H$13,MATCH(1,(B3=$G$2:$G$13)*(C3=$F$2:$F$13),0),3))
Select your cell and put your cursor in the formula bar and press Ctrl+Shift+Enter
PS: thanks to RocketDonkey ;)
In the interest of showing various ways, here is alternative using SUMPRODUCT:
=A2*SUMPRODUCT(--($F$2:$F$13=C2),--($G$2:$G$13=B2),$H$2:$H$13)
If you wanted to handle 0 values differently, you could wrap everything in an IF statement.
=IF(A2*SUMPRODUCT(--($F$2:$F$13=C2),--($G$2:$G$13=B2),$H$2:$H$13)=0,
"Special stuff",
A2*SUMPRODUCT(--($F$2:$F$13=C2),--($G$2:$G$13=B2),$H$2:$H$13))
