Conditional formatting
 

Can anyone help me!

I want cells B2 to D5 to take on the conditional formatting values
have set for A2 to A5.

I have set the cells to change background colour if certain text i
entered and that works fine but I now want the other cells to follo
suit so if the text changes, the other cells change too.

I'm not sure if I've been clear enough, ask for further info i
necessary!

Conditional formats are copied/pasted with other cell formats.
If you use a formula you might need to adapt it

Thanks Brian but this doesn't really help, I want cells B2 to D5 to
change colour but with the existing text in them.

Not Copy/Paste, but Copy/Paste Special/Format. Or select a cell with the
format you want and click the PaintBrush icon in the toolbar, then drag
select all the cells you want that format "Painted" to.
