Excel Facts

Select a hidden cell
Somehide hide payroll data in column G? Press F5. Type G1. Enter. Look in formula bar while you arrow down through G.
Let's say that you want to set up Conditional Formatting on rows 1-100.
You want to highlight the entire row, if the value in column A for that particular row was equal to "Yes".
In this case, we need to allow the rows to "float", but need to lock down the column (so all cells in row 1 will look at A1, all cells in row 2 will look at A2, etc).

So, we would select rows 1-100 (all columns), and use this Conditional Formatting formula:
Code:
=$A1="Yes"
