I have some things I want to do in Excel, some simple things actually. I have used it for other projects before, basic stuff.
First, you know how typically you can start any box off with a "=" symbol, and have it do something in that cell. Can you also draw say a border and fill based on some formula as well?
How do you enter a formatting of a cell based on some other cell value?
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
I have a macro I made that does some of what I want. That is what I want at the end, is to get my sheet the way I want, then create the macro that will do it.
But for now, I need to figure out how to tell this thing to color/fill/border values in a column based on some other data.
Can you post a picture explaining of what you want/need? Other then conditional formatting as Bluemele already stated, a lot can be done by creative combinations of simple formulas.
I agree, there is not a lot that can't be done with conditional formatting.
Although I wouldn't call myself an excel wizard, I'm always happy to help...
Developed some tools to create a book a'la Taylor.
I got enough done in excel to make most of what I want happen.
Have a NT script that will write data. As now, I have to manually put the exported data into an excel sheet copy that into my TT Book, and it will develop the book. At that point one can look at the data however they choose.
In the pics below.....
First pic: ss of the data the script creates, you can see the output window
Second pic: ss of the blank excel sheet with all the formulas in it
Third pic: ss of the sheet after pasting the data from the NTscript Output in the sheet.
As is now, I have the sheet more or less exactly in the same format as the sheet Taylor made in his book from the 1950s.
So nothing special, just a somewhat cool tool. It will allow the user to quickly create a book on any instrument they have in NT. Also to be able to go back and look at a book historically on any timeframe as long as you have data in NT for it.
Not sure if I want to put anymore time into it to make it a bit more user friendly, as I don't trade with it, but developed it.... cause it's cool.
