my dad is using excel 2k, in excel 2k, & he wants to know how do you change the colour or font style of the sheet changing tabs the reason he want to change the colour / font style is: he's using excel to do his bussiness accounts and has work sheets labled Jan Feb Mar etc. etc. and he wants to easily be able to tell if everybody has paid him for that month, or any other ideas
If I remember rightly, when you format a cell(s) you can do conditional formating. So when a cell has a certain value (for example <=> 0) it will colour the fond red or blue etc. and also bold it or underline etc. I am pretty sure you can also apply background colour to the cell or highlight it in a similar way. Right click on the cell(s) and go to 'format cells' and then go to conditional formatting. Again this is all from memory as I am not at work today..... W00T!
I think he means the sheet tabs at the bottom of the screen. As I haven't used Excel in a long while, I'm not sure if there is one. I don't remember seeing an option like that. I suppose you could just put [done] at the end of the sheet name whenever everything's been paid.
