highlighting rows according to a input value?
can we use conditional formatting to hightlight a whole row? I thought it only hightlights the specific cell -- MC82 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MC82's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=18682 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=502709 |

Yes you can highlight an entire row.
Select the row(s) and FormatCF Formula is: =$A1=10 Note the $ sign which locks the column A Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Thu, 19 Jan 2006 13:48:45 -0600, MC82 wrote: can we use conditional formatting to hightlight a whole row? I thought it only hightlights the specific cell |

I am trying to do something very similar, so this is v. interesting for me
too. Unfortunatley, Gord, I cannot workout what your advise means! Let me advise my objective: If the value of a cell in, say, column C is either "won", "lost" or "outstanding", then I want the respective row to be red, yellow or green. e.g. c7=won, row7=red; c11=lost, row11=green How do I amend your below advise?
