Apply it to one cell, then select the entire column or just the cells you
want. Make sure the first cell is part of the selection. Go to the
Conditional Formatting menu and it should display the custom format from
that first cell. Click OK and it will apply it to the selected cells.

Or, copy/paste formats.

Is it possible to apply a conditional formatting in cases where each value
in
column P exceeds the adjacent value in column D.

I have several hundred rows and would like to do this without visiting
each
individual cell in column P.
