Conditional Formatting - further assistance required
 
In K1 I typed "red" and in K2 I typed "green"
I selected A1:Q2
With Condition Formatting I used:
Formula is =$K1="red" and set font colour to red
Now all the text in row 1 is red but not in row 2 until I change K2 to
"red" - of course any word can be used (like "Labour")
Hope this is what was wanted
best wishes
