Default Auto Color Fill Question

Hello, i am needing some help to setup my spreadsheet so that whenever i enter a value in one cell, it will automatically auto color fill another cell.

So in my example i want to enter any number in E1 and when i do, it will automatically changes C1 to yellow.



Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi Kinar

One way, Select Column C

For the conditional formatting rule:
=$E1>0

Format as required.

Hi Kevin
Your formula will work up to a point. However if values lower than 0 in the ASCII table are entered your formula will not work. Try this formula which covers "ANYTHING" entered in cell E1:
=NOT(ISBLANK($E1))
Good luck.
Tony
