Default Conditional Format if cell contains a word

Hello and thank you for reading my questions. Hopefully you can help.

I have a small to medium sized worksheet in EXCEL2000 that contains numbers
and descriptions of meat products.

For instance; 17cs BEEF TENDERLOIN USDA UNGRADED
717W

The tab size spaces are to indicate that there is a new cell. So the above
example is 3 cells.

What I need to do is turn the cell red if it DOES NOT contain the one of the
words of beef, chicken, pork, veal, lamb, goat.




Thank you in advance,



Matthew Anderson
