So say if cells B1, D1 and F1 all contain text then their corresponding cells C1, E1, G1 must contain "Completed"

or say if just D1 alone contains text then the corresponding cell E1 must contain "Completed".
You seem to have two conditions here :

1) Where B, D & F contain text and their corresponding cells contain "Completed", so ALL 6 cells must be populated to trigger the conditional formatting.

2) Where just one set of the two cells needs need to be populated to trigger the conditional formatting.

Could you explain a little more of what you require?
It's easy enough to show you how, but depends on which of the above you really mean.
