Hi all,

I am seeking help with conditional formatting. I have a range of cells from A72:J162. I want to format each individual row in that range based on whether or not column H has an "x" in it. If column H="x" then I need it to format the whole row green. Thanks in advance!
 

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
Try this formula in conditional formatting;

in A72 select conditional formatting, and choose formula is, then paste in this formula,

=IF($H72="x",TRUE)

Click format and then the pattern tab and choose your colour.

Apply(copy) this to the required range (A72:J162)

Select the whole range and use Formula Is
Code:
=$H72="x"
The CF is already an IF

'The CF is already an IF' & 'You shouldn't need the IF'

Well I've learned something today, noted for future use...cheers chaps.
