Dear Experts:


I got a table that ranges from A1:Z3000. It has a named range
"DataList".
I would like those rows that have the expression 'Error' in Column 'K'
to acquire red shading.


How can this be achieved using a macro and / or conditional
formatting?


Help is much appreciated. Thank you very much in advance.


Regards, Andreas

Just being curious. How would the macro solution look like?
