Conditional Formatting Custom Formula Operators

I use a drop down menu to assign a value to a cell lets call it B8  (eg: -, Ent, CS, AB, SD, RE etc.)
C8 contains other information

I wish to use the fact that B8 is populated by an entry other than "-" to change the background. (To make it simple to see if say, AB has dealt with something)
I have managed to do it with "Ent" as the default operator and have written the formula in Conditional Formatting  =$B$8<>"Ent" for range
B8:C8

This works fine, but when I use =$B$8<>"-" it doesn't work

Also, I wish later to copy and paste this formatting and the formula =B8<>"Ent" also doesn't work in any cell other than the source cell (B8) ie not in C8.

How can I lock a cell ref from changing to a negative number
I have a shared sheet with different available products. I have a row with names for each person I share it with and a column with the quantity available, so I set it up with the sum formula so when each person puts in the quantity they would like it deducts the quantity left. My problem is once the total quantity left hits 0 people can continue to input an amount so the total becomes negative and I don't know who requested what 1st. 


Column D I have added this equation so I know how much product is left:


So I want to know if there is a way to keep the cell with the Available quantity from locking at 0? That way I know the product is sold out.

yogi_Compute Row By Row Time Differences From Base Value In Cell B2 With Times In mm:ss.sss

Google Spreadsheet   Post  #2302

Yogi Anand, D.Eng, P.E.      ANAND Enterprises LLC -- Rochester Hills MI     Nov-23-2017
I'd like to know how to achieve the following difference in time through GSheets

I have a couple of values that are essentially the ending times of a person (as an example from a motorsport result). Those look like MM:SS.SSS (30:55.112). Important is to have it calculate the difference from the fastest to the other times.

Example:

#1 30:55.112
#2 30:55.180 (+0.068) 
#3 30:55.413 (+0.301)
#4 31:01.226 (+6.114)

I need the values in bold to be calculated through GSheets.

Separating Using Empty Rows

 
How do I separate rows depending on their cell values? I need to create a family address book that lets me separate entries into family groups. I want to give entries a FAMILY_ID value and when I sort/filter using those values, I want them to be separated with an empty row. For example: 

FAMILY_ID          NAME
--------------------------------
1000                    Tim
1000                    Shane
2000                    Mark
3000                    Steve
3000                    Jim


When Sorted / Filtered:

FAMILY_ID          NAME
--------------------------------
1000                    Tim
1000                    Shane

2000                    Mark

3000                    Steve
3000                    Jim

Using ARRAYFORMULA and REGEXMATCH in 2 columns

Hello, what I'm trying to do is very simple. I need a single arrayformula (cell C1) that uses RegExMatch to verify if either column A or column B contain a specific text ("foo"). If any of the 2 cells on each row contain the specified text it will return a 1, otherwise it will return a 0. Preferably it should be a single formula at the top.

This would be the desired result:
ABC
1foocvb1
2ertfooer1
3sdfasd0
4qwefoo1
5foodrty1
6qwerxcv0


Edit: here's an editable version of the above example: 
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VUFjL2c2kWhC_rhGlJRTJ7qVlC4svHeHSTmFZT11XFk

I tried the following formula but it doesn't work:
=ARRAYFORMULA(IFERROR(IF(OR(REGEXMATCH(A1:A,"foo")=TRUE,REGEXMATCH(B1:B,"foo")=TRUE),1,0)))

The following formula works but the results take 2 columns (C and D) instead of just one:
=ARRAYFORMULA(IFERROR(IF(REGEXMATCH(A1:B,"foo")=TRUE,1,0))

The following formula works but I have to copy it down instead of being a single formula at the top:
=IFERROR(IF(OR(REGEXMATCH(A1,"foo")=TRUE,REGEXMATCH(B1,"foo")=TRUE),1,0))

Is this possible or do I have to use the copy down version?

Thanks in advance

Hello,

Thank you for your interest in viewing this topic. I'm posting this as I really need all the help I can get from you all.

I'm trying to create a sheet that has a dashboard and a raw data which would allow me to see on the dashboard the scorecard of each person by week.

I made a sample below which would let you all see what I'm trying to create. I'm only asking for the formulas that I would need to use in the green cells which you would see in my sample. Please access the link to see the sample:


I'm looking forward to all of your comments.

How do I format my sheet with colors for each cell?
I have a discount sheet I created, where each column shows me the individual price of an item when a specific discount percentage is applied. I've added a column that corresponds with the cost of an item that I don't want to go under. How can I format the cells to mark as red if a discount will go under the bottom price of an item? 
(So here I would like the 20% through the 35% of the $200 item to be marked red. I know I can do this through the conditional formatting, but is there some way to format it for the entire sheet instead of formatting each row individually?)
Bottom LinePRICED AT10%15%20%25%30%35%

Need help counting dates between dates
Hey,  I am a bit puzzled,  can I get some help with a formula to help count between dates.

The parking data tab shows a patron entry,   it shows the time in and time out

Say person A parked form 09/28/17 to 10/03/17
and person B parked from  10/02/17  to 10/04/17
I need to track how many people parked per day.
so it would look something like this

10/1 - 1
10/2 - 2
10/3 - 2
10/4 - 1

and so on.

Transforming any number typed into a cell into a k,M,B,T... shortened
There are cells, for example cell A1, where a very high number can be typed into. now the number inside that cell should be formatted to k,M,B...

for example 25.300.000 would usually turn into 2,53E+7 but i want to have 25,3 M
when numbers have to many non zeros, the value is rounded up. for example 123.475.345.876 turns into 123,5 T

because:
k stands for kilo
M for million
B for billion
T for trillion
Q for quadrillion
Qi for quintillion
etc.

thank you for any help
