Hey Yall,
I am needing assistance with cell formatting. The sheet that I am working on is insanely large (100 Rows by 85 Columns) so here is a small portion of it.

The formatting has to occur when the word "No" is consecutive 4 times, like in E2 to H2. All it has to do is color fill the cell to red.

I have to use Google Sheets due to the group I am in, there will be one one person to alter the sheet other than myself.
