Default Conditional Formatting

Hi,

Highlight the cells you want to condition.
Click on Conditional Formatting icon in the styles area.
Click on New Rule. In the Select a Rule Type: area choose €śUse a formula to
determine which cells to format€ť.
When the Date is in say cell A1 write the following formula in the Format
values where this formula is true: =$A$1=€ťYes€ť then click on format and then
strikethrough in the effects area.
Click OK twice.

I'm trying to make a conditional formatting rule in Excel 2007 that makes a
row of several cells where one cell contains the text "Yes" to be formatted
to have strike-through active. Can anyone explain to me how to do this?
