How can I highlite an entire row using conditional formatting?
I would like to have one cell I can enter an "X" into that would highlite the
entire row. I dont know if I have to use conditional formatting or if I have to use a macro, but I am just needing a little guidance. Thanks. |

Hi,
Select your row then Format|conditional formatting, select formula is paste this in =$A1="x" Choose a colour. An X in a1 now shades the whole row.

How can I highlite an entire row using conditional formatting?
Select the entire row or range of cells in that row then FormatCFFormula is:
=$C1="x" Format to a pattern and OK If you select several rows you can do them all at once with the above. Note the absolute reference to Column C($) and the relative reference to row 1 Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Tue, 24 Jul 2007 10:58:06 -0700, Damien wrote: I would like to have one cell I can enter an "X" into that would highlite the entire row.
