Learn how to crosshair highlight with user selected dropdown list in Excel.

In Excel, there are various ways to enhance data visibility through highlighting. To highlight a crosshair in Excel, you can create a crosshair shape using the "Insert" tab and positioning it over the desired cell or range. For highlighting specific entries, use the conditional formatting feature by selecting the target cells, navigating to the "Home" tab, and choosing "Conditional Formatting." To automatically highlight selected cells based on specific criteria, employ conditional formatting rules with formulas. If you want to selectively highlight in Excel, utilize the manual formatting options such as changing cell background color or font color. Additionally, to highlight the active row and column, you can use a combination of conditional formatting and formulas, ensuring that the formatting dynamically adjusts based on the active cell. Overall, these methods offer flexibility in emphasizing data points, making it easier to interpret and analyze information in Excel.

Here are the steps outlined in the video.

Crosshair Highlight
1) Select data
2) Home ~ Style ~ Conditional Formatting
3) New Rule...
4) Use a formula to determine which cells to format
5) =OR($A7=$C$2,B$6=$C$3)
6) Format ~ Fill tab ~ Fill color = YELLOW
7) OK
8) OK

Lets breakdown this formula.

=OR($A7=$C$2,B$6=$C$3)

1) OR: This is a logical function in Excel that returns TRUE if any of the conditions provided to it are TRUE. In this case, it checks two conditions.
2) $A7=$C$2: This is the first condition. It checks if the value in cell A7 is equal to the value in cell C2. The dollar signs ($) before column and row references ($C$2) make the reference absolute, meaning it won't change when you copy the formula to other cells. In this case, only the row number is relative ($A7), so it will change when you copy the formula to different rows.
3) B$6=$C$3: This is the second condition. It checks if the value in cell B6 is equal to the value in cell C3. Similar to the first condition, the dollar signs make the column reference absolute ($C$3), and only the row number is relative (B$6).

The overall formula returns TRUE if either of the conditions is TRUE. If both conditions are FALSE, the formula returns FALSE. This type of formula is often used in conditional formatting or data validation to apply specific formatting or actions based on certain criteria.
