VBA or Conditional formatting ?

[ipbr21054]

Afternoon all,

I need to apply a red font color if cell shows REFUND.

The word Refund will only ever be in cell B
If i type Refund then cell B,C,D,E,F,G font color Red.

The font color only needs to be applied for the cells mentioned above & only for that row if Refund is in that cell B

Please advise.

Thanks,have a nice day.

Select the columns B:F, and then apply the following CF formula:
=$B1="REFUND"

The key is the dollar sign in front of the column B to "lock" that reference so that ALL columns in your selected range will look at column B.

Have you used Conditional Formatting before, specifically the formula option?
After entering your formula, you need to click on the "Format" button, and select the formatting option that you want (go to the Font tab and select the red color).
