When I have 1 table of Excel data, my specific example is as follows:
When I enter values in the Input data box, then in the EXCEL data table cells those numbers will be marked with any color for example in the image below. I want this process to be done automatically instead of entering it manually
Please forum members help me to do it

my solution will not work where the number of digits vary - for example as a 2 will be found in any number with a 2 in so 22, 23, 234 etc

giải pháp của tôi sẽ không hoạt động khi số lượng chữ số khác nhau - ví dụ như số 2 sẽ được tìm thấy trong bất kỳ số nào có số 2 trong 22, 23, 234, v.v.

will be 002 rather than 2. they are all 3-digit numbers. Your solution worked but I don't know how to add them in excel. Please give an example with a specific picture

They need to be entered as TEXT
Numbers will remove the leading zero's and formatting will not resolve - as we are using find to find exact match - NOT a formatting
so 2
must be Text entered as 002

Conditional Formatting

Highlight applicable range >>
B6:D15 - Change, reduce or extend the rows to meet your data range of rows

Home Tab >> Styles >> Conditional Formatting

=AND(B6<>"",FIND(B6,$H$5,1))

Format [Number, Font, Border, Fill]
