Select A1 to A50, with the focus of the selection in A1 (A1 is white).

Then,
<Format. <Conditional Format
Change "Cell Value Is" to "Formula Is",
And enter this :

=B10

Then click on "Format", and choose whatever you like.
Then <OK out.
And you're done!

Is it possible to conditional format (CF) a range of cells eg A1 to A50
depending on the contents of the cells B1 to B50?
I want the individual cells in A1 to A50 to change when a value is eneterd
into the individual cells B1 to B2, eg if I enter a date in B1 then
contents
of A1 changes to red, if I enter a date in B2 then contents of A2 changes
to
red etc etc.

I know how to get it to change to red but it seems I have to CF each cell
individually. ie A1 to B1, A2 to B2 etc etc.

I have tried to copy and paste (format) cell A1 to cells A2 to A50 but
these
would always refernce back to B1 (Because A1 refers to B1)
