I am using Google Sheets and trying to write a custom formatting rule that seems like it should be simple. I am trying to figure out how to conditionally format all the cells in a column INCLUDING AND ABOVE (but not below) the cell that meets my condition.
I've found a lot of things that will format the entire column, but that's not what I'm looking for.
The image below is a basic example that I manually colored in to do what I want.
It's for my budget spreadsheet, where each row is an entry from a particular date. I have an "Agreement" column that is empty except when I enter the date that I reconciled the budget. I want it to color that cell and all the empty cells above it green, signifying at a glance: "everything up to this point is ok/has been checked over". Then as time goes by, and I enter another date several rows below, I want it to extend the colored shading up to there.
I've been searching, but it is hard to articulate this; if I say "until this cell" I get results for "shade cell until text is entered"; any mention of "above" and "below" generally relates to the values in the cells; I've found some things about Indirect but just for a single cell above, not for all cells above the current cell.
Wondering if this is even possible...
