Default highlight row if cell value equal zero

I am trying to use conditional formatting to highlight a row if value
in column E = 0.

I have tried highlighting the row and the selecting:

Format-Conditional Formating

Formula is =IF($E67=0)

then selcted color I would like to appear if formula is true.

But, it's not working.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi Amanda

Try the following for highlighting the entire row

1. Select on the row/s you want to hightlight
2. Go to Format and select Conditional Formatting
3. Choose FORMULA IS under Condition 1
4. Enter this formula =$E67=0
5. Click on Format Go to Pattern choose the color you want
6. Click Ok out all the way and you are done

or

Assuming that you want the range A67:E67 highlighted when cell E67=0

Select the row A67:E67
Goto FormatConditional Formatting
Select the Formula Is option
Enter this formula in the box on the right:

=$E67=0

Click the Format button
Select the color you want
OK out
