select the entirerow or rows

assume you have selected rows 10:50

with A10 as the active Cell

Format
conditional Formatting

Change Cell Value is to Formula is

enter a formula like

=$D10=4

then hit the format button, patterns tab and select orange

OK out.

you enter you formula relative to the active cell. Using the $D fixes the
reference to column 4 of the appropriate row.

If you are going to type in the values that would work.

If you are importing data, I don't know whether the change event would be
fired or not - I guess you would need to test it with the specific method
you are using.
