The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Conditional Flashing Cells in XL2K

Asked by TigerMan in Microsoft Office Suite

Hi All,

Small problem - for Trivia Night XL tool - on the big screen - need some glitz [not my forte!].

Have 15 teams and they present nicely in a 'View' sheet for overhead projection.  Round 1 through to Round 10 - total on right hand side [Col W].  Two sheets 1: Data - for entering results and playing wild cards to increment scores by pre-set factor, and 2: View with the nice clean overhead results page.

In 'View', need the cells of the row of the current winner to flash light green, runner up flashes light blue, and third to flash yellow.

Each of these rows must flash conditionally dependent on ranking in field of teams.

Something like macro that runs on either counter, timer, or stepped loop.   Whenever the View sheet has focus, run macro - enable breaking out of the macro [as it will run in full screen, maybe a button with Ctrl-? to break out of the loop] to return to the Data Sheet.

Ask me some more questions if there is insufficient to get an idea of what I am doing, or grab a copy of the work in progress from www.liveit.com.au/filetfr [best to Save Copy As].

In all fairness, I think it best to post the code for the solution in EE - so don't bother to try to send the file back to me.

Also, I would think there might be a few have a go, so would be happy to up the points and split if needed.

Have fun - back in about 8 hours.
