Conditional Formatting to color a cell if Offset 1 to the right of ActiveCell contains "XYZ"

[2Took]

Trying to get if not a solution, then thoughts on this endeavor:

To get a cell A formatted, if Offset 1 B to the right of ActiveCell C contains "XYZ".

A, B & C is to indicate three sells would be involved:
A is acted upon by Conditional Formatting,
B is cell evaluated if its value contains "XYZ", and
C is currently ActiveCell - as in one currently selected.

VBA solution is also welcome, but really curious about Conditional Formatting solution.
Or maybe a combo of the two?

To get a cell A formatted, if Offset 1 B to the right of ActiveCell C contains "XYZ".

Solved as follows:

In Worksheet Selection Change:

Range("L1").Value = ActiveCell.Address

Then for cell A, Conditional Formatting formula:

=COUNTIF(OFFSET(INDIRECT(L1,TRUE),0,1),"*XYZ*")

Put "XYZ" one cell to the right of cell you want to trigger A cell to be formatted.
