Hi, I'm a school teacher and I head up an ISR Department and I am attempting to do a Spreadsheet that keeps track of several things, such as; Student Name, Time Served In Detention, Infraction, etc... I should state that my wife found a generic spreadsheet that "she" was able to change things around a little bit to fit what I was looking for... BUT here's my question:
At the top of the sheet, I am wanting to have different categories such as; T Tardy, LD Lunch Detention, SKC Skipping Class, etc. I want to assign each infraction its own color, and be able to type in the abbreviation in the cell area, and once I type in the abbreviation of the infraction, the color will automatically pop up in the cell area so I can get a good visual on what's going on. PLEASE HELP!!!!
Attached is a sample of what I want to know how to do; Change the infraction categories, assign each categorie its own color and abbreviation that corresponds with it; so once I type in the Abbreviation in the cell, it will automatically change to that color. If you could do screenshots that would be awesome! If not, just clearly explain. Thanks!
