Conditional formatting of an entire row based on a cell text entry
Hi everyone, I would like to use conditional formatting on a table that is 8
columns wide and 50 rows high. What I would like to do is colour all rows that have an X in column D or E. This is what I tried The formula is =A1="x" This colours only the cells where there is an X. What I would like is the entire row or rows to be coloured. Thanks for your efforts Gilles |

Try setting to The formula is =OR($D1="X",$E1="X")
The mixed reference will allow you to copy this to your entire table, keeping the references fixed to column D or E of the current row.
