David,

Select the cells (or columns). Note the active (white) cell of your selection. Format -
Conditional formatting - formula. For an active cell of A1, enter this formula:
=$A1="disp"
Then click the Format button and set the desired formatting.

If you look at the Conditional Formatting formula of any other cell, it will look
different -- the formula is effectively copied to the other cells. For more on conditional
formatting, go to Debra Dalgleish's www.contextures.com.

Note: Some folks prefer bottom-posting.
But if you bottom-post to a reply that's
already top-posted, the thread gets messy.
