google spreadsheet - Conditional formatting based on validation errors -


i have drop down box , old data in sheet doesn't match drop down box list needs added conditional formatting cell stands out bit better.

is possible set conditional formatting of cell based on whether or not cell has validation error?

it impossible way want, there workaround.

you can use conditional formatting custom formula.

if data validation range, use range. if list, create range list.

for example range on sheet2 a1:a10 has values used in data validation. want format range sheet1 b:b based on values found in range.

first, select column in table(or whole table) , colour red. use conditional formatting following custom formula colour matches white

=countif(indirect("sheet2!$a$1:$a$10"),"="&b1) 

you can add conditional formatting colour empty cells white if have empty space after table
