Default Conditional formating based on text

Oops!
ISERROR instead of ISNA

for cell A1 in conditional formatting enter the following function
=ISNA(FIND("?",A1,1))=FALSE
probably a simpler formula on the way too.

I want to make all cells which contain a question mark to have a red
fill but the conditional formating options don't allow you to make an
"if a cell contains ? then" format.
