excel - Automatically colour the absolute complete reference cell -


i have sheet 1 , sheet 2 . sheet 2 a2 has name of cities. have used absolute reference (i.e. =) link name of cities sheet 2 a2 sheet 1 a1.

now trying whenever link cities' names sheet 2 a2 sheet 1 a1, want linked cities cell automatically turn red background colour. way can know city's name sheet 2 a2 has been linked sheet 1 a1.

can please me on this. save lot of time in work

you don't need vba. use conditional formatting:

  • highlight list of countries in sheet2
  • from menu: conditional formatting > new rule > use formula...
  • type formula in: =$a2:$a10=sheet1!$a$1
  • set format e.g. bold, red background...

clearly adjust formula match cell references.
