I am relatively new to programming. Can anyone suggest the code for the
following:

I want to highlight each row that contains a certain value in a particular
column.

For Each Row that contains X in Cell F
then highlight row.

Can anyone get me started? Thanks Michael

This should get you started.

For Each cell In Range("F1:F65536")
If cell.Value = "X" _
Then
cell.EntireRow.Select
With Selection.Interior
.ColorIndex = 6
.Pattern = xlSolid
End With
Else:
End If
Next cell


This changes the background color of the entire row to yellow if the value
of the cell in column F is "X". Modify as necessary.

HTH,
Paul

Dim I as Long, lngFRow as Long, lngLRow as Long, wshList as Worksheet

Set wshList = Workbooks("Book1.xls").Worksheets("Sheet1") 'Sets the variable
to a reference of the worksheet you want to manipulate
lngFRow = 5 'The first row number you want to check for highlighting
lngLRow = 2000 'The last row number you want to check for highlighting
For I = lngFRow to lngLRow Step 1
If wshList.Range("F" & CStr(I)).Value = 50 Then 'Checks to see if the F
column contains a numeric value of 50
wshList.Range(CStr(I) & ":" & CStr(I)).Interior.ColorIndex = 8 'Cyan
background color if the value of that row in the F column is 50
Else
wshList.Range(CStr(I) & ":" & CStr(I)).Interior.ColorIndex =
xlColorIndexNone 'No background color otherwise
EndIf
Next I

Use conditional formatting.
