Default change cell colour if value in column = x??


Hi all,
I'm trying to get a cell in Colimn V to change colour if the value 5 i
found in a particular row....so if cell D2 contained value 5 then V
must turn yellow (or some such colour) if F2 contained 5 then cell V
will be yellow etc. every other column from D up to column U for aroun
30 rows, if the value of 5 is removed or is not present then the colou
of the cell should remain or get changed back to white. This is what
have been working with but of course its doesnt work!!!!

Any ideas?
Thanks,
Simon

Dim rng As Range
If Range("$D$2:$D$40") Or Range("$F$2:$F$40") O
Range("$H$2:$H$40").Value < 5 Then
ElseIf Range("$D$2:$D$40") Or Range("$F$2:$F$40") O
Range("$H$2:$H$40").Value = 5 Then
rng = rng("V2:V40")
With rng '("V2:V40")
.Select
.FormatConditions.Delete
.FormatConditions.Add _
Type:=xlExpression, _
Formula1:="=NOT(ISBLANK(V2))"
With .FormatConditions(1).Interior
.ColorIndex = 44
.Pattern = xlSolid
.PatternColorIndex = xlAutomatic
End With
End With
End If
End Su
