Default multiple cells conditional formatting

Hi Paula,

Say your conditional cell is A1 with the value 1/29/07
Then set conditional formatting for A1 with
Formula is =MATCH(A1,A3:D3,0)

I want to highlight a cell through conditional formatting - it depends on
the
results of multiple cells. So, how could I put a formula in for
conditional
formatting for the following:

inside the conditional cell there is a date 1/29/07

A3 B3 C3 D3
1/1/07 1/15/07 1/29/07 2/1/07

I want the conditional cell to highlight if any of the a3:d3 cells =
1/29/07

thanks!!
