Given are a number of cells with values, say for example B2, E2, G2. I want to color the cell containing the smallest value green. In case there are multiple cells contain the same (smallest) value, all these cells must be colored green.
First create a cell style for your green colour:o Go to Format | Styles and Formatting (or press F11 or click the Styles and Formatting button in the Formatting toolbar).
o Click the Cell Styles button at the top of the Styles and Formatting window. o Click the "New Style from Selection" button. o Give your new style a name - perhaps "Green"? o Right-click on the new style name in the list and select Modify... . o On the Background tab, select your shade of green. Now to colour the cells:o In the corresponding cell of a new column, let's say K (so in K2), insert the formula =MIN(B2;E2;G2) .
o Select, say, B2. o Go to Format | Conditional Formatting... . o For Condition 1 (ticked), select "Cell value is" and "equal to". o In the third box, type $K2. o For Cell Style, select "Green", and click OK. o Repeat for E2 and G2.
Next I would like to do the same for {B3, E3, G3}, {B4, E4, G4}, ....
If appropriate (as it presumably will be), you can very easily fill the columns down from the original cells in row 2. You'll need to fill down column K too, of course.
If you wish, you can hide column K or you can choose to put it out of the way - outside your print range - or even on a separate sheet.
I trust this helps.
