Hello, when I set up conditional formatting on a sheet it applies to the entire sheet. I would like to set a different criteria for each row and when the conditions are met, I would like that row to turn red. How can this be achieved?
Hi Theresa,
When you set up the conditional formatting rule you set conditions and depending on your set up it's possible to have them affect just one row.
What do you want the rule to do more specifically?
I hope this helps you!

This can be done using an index. Create a autonumber column to index your sheet and reference the autocolumn number inside of the conditional formatting.
I am keeping track of inventory. I want the row to turn red when the quantity on hand falls below a certain number. This number is unique to the item. I may need to know when I have only 5 boxes of tissue on hand but I will want to know when I have 10 pens left.
I am not sure how to do that but I will find out.
Thanks Luke.

I created a "move row to another sheet" automation where the trigger is when rows are changed and ACTIVE / INACTIVE status changes to INACTIVE. When I changed the status in one row, the automation was triggered and now all of my rows are gone, and they are not on the destination sheet either. Where is my data? There is no…
Good Morning, I was working too early and after vacation and deleted some needed information from a report and it changes all my workbooks. I did the download for the history however it doesn't show me the data that was in the cells. Is there any way to get that information?
