Try setting to The formula is =OR($D1="X",$E1="X")
The mixed reference will allow you to copy this to your entire table,
keeping the references fixed to column D or E of the current row.

Hi everyone, I would like to use conditional formatting on a table that
is 8
columns wide and 50 rows high.

What I would like to do is colour all rows that have an X in column D or
E.

This is what I tried The formula is =A1="x"
This colours only the cells where there is an X. What I would like is the
entire row or rows to be coloured.

Thanks for your efforts
