Hi, I'm pretty new with VBA. I'm trying to highlight a range of cells for
example (A10:N500) based on cells located in column M. If M10=CA Then
A10:N10 will be highlighted yellow Else If M11=GI Then A11:N11 will be
highlighted orange and about three more coniditons. I would appreciate a
code for this.

-Thank you

Hi Alex

Try using conditioal formating to achieve your goal I think this will be
easier than using VBA.

There are 5 conditions. The conditional formatting only allows three
condition.

If M10 were GI, would A10:N10 go orange as well?

How would I use this as a macro. So when I hit Ctrl+D the code would be run.
Also the criteria is a formula, which the code doesn't work. For example
GI, HO are calculated through a formula.
