Excel - named range in a conditional formatting formula
Excel conditional formatting based on a formulaExcel 2007 conditional formatting formula problemExcel conditional formatting based on a formula including a range containing the current cellDoes the Excel IF statement make a calculation sheet faster than using IFERROR?Fill formula containing named range but change named range based on relative referenceExcel reference named range with text and formulaExcel formula related to conditional formattingExcel conditional formatting linked cells blank formulaTrue/False for two arrays having 1+ values that are the sameExcel conditional formatting: formula blanks treated inconsistently?
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
TLDR; seems like CF thinks my formula with named range is an array, and I want it to function like a flat formula.
Long time lurker, first time poster!
I have been creating nice elaborate conditional formatting formulas for a while now. However, I have always had a challenge when using these with named ranges. The formulas work great when in a cell, but when placed into CF, they fail.
Perhaps my issue is related to the way in which CF seems to already identify these formulas as arrays. Perhaps somebody can help me understand how best to overcome this issue. I'll link a document for illustration.
So when I place escalating numbers in A1:J1, and place in A2:J2 this formula
=IF(TheNums>4,TRUE,FALSE)
then E2:J2 all come back TRUE. Placing the same formula into CF comes back all FALSE. If I enter the same formula as an array with CSE, I get FALSE all across.
Can somebody help with my syntax to hopefully stop this from failing?
Thanks so much!

I should say, I totally understand that my simple request above could possibly be done with direct references. This is how I've gotten around the situation in the past. However, my current task is a bit more complicated than usual, and I'd love to use named ranges for readability.

Try this method will help you to apply Conditional Formatting for the Row:
Note:
- This solution is based on the attached Drop
Box image. - This solution will work on single Row data
only.
How it works:
Enter this Array (CSE) Formula in Cell
A2
,
fill it Right, PressF2
& finish with
Ctrl+Shift+Enter.
{=IF(Mydata1>4,TRUE,FALSE)}
Mydata1
is Named Range (A1:G1
).Select both Rows (
A1:G2
), reach toConditional Formatting
,New Rule
.- Apply this Formula.
=A2=TRUE
& an appropriate
Color Format, finish withOk
