Leila, you are a true Goddess of Excel. Same as for others, you demystified the conditional formatting for me today. Thank you.

[@dkt22190]

Your videos have genuinely helped me demystify Excel! You have been that tutor that I was always looking for! Genuinely useful and amazing videos! Please keep doing this. Even your shorts have been extremely useful.

[@sachinrv1]

The keyboard short cut key for conditional formatting is (well it's not that short cut as such) ALT+H, L then N for conditional formatting new rule, with keyboard select last option "use formula to determine" and then ALT+O for formula bar activity. Using this will make you look like a Pro (hahaha) Thanks for sharing Leila :)

[@egasbritesdasilva6773]

thank you for your video makes my work easier and more fun to read, greetings from us in Dili, Timor-Leste, keep up the good work

[@mpart_woodlathe-stuff]

Thank you very much Leila. I must've spent 2 days (off and on) trying to get conditional formatting to work. That is, until I saw yours with all the little nuances that were causing me so much grief. Again, thank you

[@LeilaGharani]

Glad it was helpful.

[@TylerStanczak]

This is super helpful. Appreciate this tutorial on conditional formatting :)

[@LeilaGharani]

I've written excel macros for over 20 years and never knew the tips I learned from this video. Personally, a game changer.

[@harishn3331]

I appreciate that, Charles!

[@TheSlarge]

A phenomenal piece of work. Thank you.

[@richardreid4434]

❤I watch your videos every time I get stuck in a formula and cant thank you enough. You always put the exact solution in to what I am missing. This one you had me remove the “$” from the lookup reference and POOF! Fixed. Thank you so much!!! Love your videos so much.

[@andycummings9944]

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I had watched three other tutorials before this one, and yours was the first one that I could follow and it worked.

[@miguelplg19]

Thank you for creating and posting these tutorials. Your knowledge has helped me several times over, and your teaching method is clear and very precise. Thanks again!!!

[@ogrammer]

Thank you so much. I was having trouble getting my formatting to apply to the other rows. This was the 4th video I watched and the only one that covered the removal of the $.

[@ldmlhome]

I’ll never get the 2 hours I spent last week trying to get this to work BUT you have solved the headache that I got from that and I’ll NEVER get this particular headache again. As I’ve stated before YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!!

[@brazilbeyondtheheadlines]

This is great, thank you Leila! I can binge watch your channel for hours, I learn so much!

[@prin4520]

[@davidchip6075]

I was looking for one solutionf googling the resolution, but after one and a half hour, I found your video and helped me in 5 minutes.... thank you!

[@new_moon_12]

Your video's a life save. Thank you so much. This is such a little bug, but a real big headache. Was literally trying to figure this out for over half n hour.

[@piggyware]

Thank you, that it starts from the first cell in the selection was an important lesson for me.

[@robmoore2780]

I have been working in Excel now since it first came out and replaced SuperCalc (anyone remember that?). I never could get my head around conditional formatting until I watched this video. thank you so much, it was so simple to follow.

[@tahajasden1948]

nobody explained the logics behind it but you did thank you.

[@mattschoular8844]

I have always found Conditional FormTing via formulas to be challenging. This is a great explanation. Nice shout out to Mike Girvin and ExcelIsFun. You both deserve more credit than I can offer with a "Like" and a comment. Keep up the great work, it is appreciated.

[@LeilaGharani]

Like and a comment is all the credit I need. Thank you for watching!

[@jewelhannathomas]

Leila, your videos are very easy to understand. Thankyou!

[@mezianeremila454]

Again it took me months not to say years of practicing to know all these tricks and you compiled it a short 10 mn video, great job as ever thank you very much Leila...

[@LeilaGharani]

Great to hear!

[@romeshnixByte]

i got the benifit of watching this video as i was needing to colour some cells automatically. Thank you so much

[@meshell7987]

Thank you, Leila, for explaining everything so simple and in easy to understand way! Also, your voice is so pleasant, you are not in a hurry, and I can understand everything without the need to give a pause in order to assimilate. You are my favorite excel trainer :) Thank you and keep the same way!

[@CaseyToland]

I always struggled with these and this video made it so much easier to grasp. The trick to copy the formula and drag it across cells to see how it performed was perfect. Thank you.

[@w2class]

Great clarification of how to apply conditional formatting. Thanks, Leila.

[@LeilaGharani]

Glad you enjoyed it, Anthony!

[@djbcybertench]

Your tutorials are fantastic ! The right pace and right balance of enthusiasm. I can't see any of your tutorials on Excel cell styles and / or workbook styles (?) I've used these but as always, via your tutorials, I'm probably "scratching the surface" of what could be done. Comments or tutorials welcome...

[@LeilaGharani]

Wow, thanks David!

[@Jules-ip1jh]

Thanks so much for this, I have been puzzling over this for days, should have come here first! So helpful!

[@ghodakesiddhirajkumaradmir2565]

LIFESAVER!! TMR IS MY NATIONAL EXAM

[@yogibearstie]

With all of the knowledge you have generously shared in so many videos I was able to create drop down lists and date fields in a Word document and then copy them into an Outlook email and save it as a Template. I now have a very reusable form when creating assignments. I couldn’t find these objects within Outlook, but copy/paste works. I bet you would do it 100x smarter though.

[@rohitshukla4652]

Leila your teaching style and specially your voice both are just amazing

[@LeilaGharani]

Thank you! 😃

[@rossanderson5218]

I had an excel test for job towards beginning of year that had the second conditional formatting you did in, (highlight whole row).. I remember I got completely lost,I even googled trying to workout how and to do it and couldn't find anything to help. I still got the job but I was dumfounded by that question and you've just made it seem so simple! I feel special now haha but thankyou, it is so obvious. bugga! keep up the good work!

[@LeilaGharani]

Hope I didn't stir up some unpleasant memories 😊

[@rossanderson5218]

[@devendranarayanverma4726]

I was really confused before but you have cleared em

[@TheConquesttintin]

Your videos are the best! Thank you :=)

[@robertthompson7334]

Thanks, Leila for another great video. One quick correction. It's minor, but screw things up if that's the problem. Rule 2 (at 1:54) is often correct, but not always. The correct rule is that the format is always from the point of view of the cell which has the focus. In the example given (and most times this is true) it happens to be the first cell of the selection (cell B6 as noted just below the word "Clipboard" in the home ribbon). But depending on how you select your range, it could be the last cell or some other cell.

[@fernando5166]

Very grateful for the videos

[@neelamzaidi1683]

i watch your videos for fun, you have taught me so much!!!
