For example: Range is A1:B2.
Cell A1 is 1
Cell A2 is 2
Cell B1 is 3
Cell B2 is 4
Cell A5 is 1
After highlighting range A1:B2. Select Conditional Formatting and use the formula =SEARCH( A5,1,0)) and format the color cell A1 yellow? That way it will search any cell within the range that contains the value 1 and highlighted yellow. Even if more than one cell contains the value of one.
I did not use the IF statement because the value of Cell A5 will always change
Cell A1 is 1
Cell A2 is 2
