Default Conditional Format

I'm trying to apply conditional formatting on the entire row if condition is
met.

The Column the conditon is in M. How would I accomplish to turn each row
red if anything in Column M has the words "red-jeopardy"?

Default Conditional Format

Highlight all the desired rows (I'll assume 2:100).
Under conditional format, change "cell value" to "formula" and paste this
formula in:
=$M2="red-jeopardy"
Apply the desired formatting and save

Default Conditional Format

Select desired range (assume you start in row 2)
Condition format, formula is:
=$M2="red-jeopardy"
Format with red pattern.
'ok'.


The trick is using the absolute reference on column M.
