Default How Do I Condition A Entire Row, Based On The Content Of A Cell.


Thank you both for taking the time and the trouble to post a reply.
However, I'm uncertain that I've followed your instructions correctly as it
doesn't seem to work.

From Conditional Formating in Excel 07, I choose from the drop down menu:
Use A Formula To Determine Which Cells To Format.

I then enter into the box below (where it states: Format Values Where This
Forumla Is True) the following:

=$H$1=Closed

Then I choose a colour.

Then I paste / copy this formula into all the other cells so if the word
Closed appears in Column 8, the entire row will change to the same colour.


Kind Regards
Emmily
