conditioning formatting
Folks
I have a conditional format that looks at a start date in columm b and end date in c and
checks out the week numbers, if this corresponds in a weeknumber range d1 to bc1 then it highlights the cells yellow ,like so
•=AND(D$1>=WEEKNUM($B1),D$
what I would like is to also have have condition format the cell with a letter "X" but also, how can I build functionality that if I remove the "X" for that cell , that the code goes and changes either the start date or end date with the new revise date range
all help will do, below is the atatched sample which I already have

How would it know what the revised date would be since each "X" represents a week number? If you remove the first "X" in a row where the start date is 1/4/2014, the revised start date could be anywhere between 1/5/2014 and 1/11/2014 since that range represents week number 2.

and "x" specifies a week so it should subtract a week if removed, im conscious it might not be possible, but keen to understand if it is
Ok now I understand what you want.
Pls try this file and play with the X the way you want and see the colors changes as well as the dates. Is this what you want ???

doesnt work, i would like the code to work both ways, when changing the start /end dates it should set the highlighting with marking the calls yellow/x if between the spcified dates and vice versa, if I remove the x then it should update the dates itself
ok now got it !!!
You then need a mixture of macro as well !!! hmmm :)
here you are
Enjoy
I hope this does it ... play with the x .... and put dates ...
just make sure macros are activated prior to loading the file
let me know

nearly nearly, i would like all the weeks filled with a "x" so if I remove the x from week 5 then it only recalculates the end date to week 4
well even if no xxxx try what you just said and see the result
if x in wk4 then x in week 10
if you want shorter remove x from week 10 then only week4 is yellow and put where you want.
similarly if you put x in week 2 it will remove week 4 and you will have 2 to 10

did see if I set the end date to an earlier finish date the highlighted yellow works and adjust's accordingly but the x in the orginal end date still displays
give me a specific example so I see where is what is not functioning as I tested quite long and it was working here.
