Default conditional formatting

Hi all,

How to do the conditional formatting if I want in A3:P200 the back ground
color of a cell to be yellow if it contains JSO. Example, cells may look
like ABC/DEF/JSO/HIJ in which case I want the back ground yellow.
I tried a lot, but =$A$3="*JSO*" or =$A$3="*"$"JSO"&"*" etc. won't work.
I use Excel 2k.

TIA
