Hey Q, trying to figure out a better way to show home/away. I might try to PaintShop the helmet icons with a grey background for away games? Or am I just too daft to see the "bold" very well?
Yeah, wasn't sure how to do this. I have access to a plotter, so I am going to put all of the helmet schedules on a 36x48 to hang on my wall. At that size I think the bold should be sufficient. It's kind of hard to select an individual cell once you have the image in it, so I did it before adding the images.
You can use Conditional Formating to do exactly what you want and you'll probably be able to see it better than the "outline method" described.
Here's what I did:
1-on the
ACC Tab: click on cell B3 (this the Boston College @Kent St matchup)
2-
Conditional Format this cell to recognize Away Games (ie, any away game that starts with an "@").
Goto: Format, Conditional Format.
Change the Condition 1 drop down to say "
Formula Is"......."=AND(LEFT(B3,1)="@")"
FYI: This takes cell B3 and cuts off the text so that only the 1st character is evaluated.
FYI2: The only formulas that you can use for Conditional formats is one that ultimately returns a TRUE or FALSE answer.
Pick what color you want (I picked Gray)
3-
Copy this format to the other cells.
Copy cell B3. (I'm a Ctrl-C type of guy.)
Hi-light the paste area with your mouse.
Goto: Edit, PASTE SPECIAL
Select "Format" and hit OK.
Be careful as you don't want to paste this format on everything and override some of the cells with the Conference Titles, etc.... in them as they are merged cells.
Worked for me! Good Luck.
