Sum total cells to change colour
 
Look in help for conditional formatting, select the range in D, assume the
values start in D1
do formatconditional formatting, select formula is

=SUM($D$1:D1)=$H$3

click the format button and select the format you want, then click OK twice

Sum total cells to change colour
 
Thank you Peo. Just one more question, if I may!
Data runs from D11 to D60000 and dates are on column "A" and this covers the
whole year. Is it possible to do the same for each month on one sheet?
