Is it one word in the cell or cojoined with other words? A
Conditional Formatting will solve that if the word is soley on it's
own in the cell. If you need help with it, let me (or anyone) know.

Conditional Formatting
Cell Value Is; equal to; Yes

You can also do it if the cell CONTAINS yes (but the whole cell would get the
formatting, not just the word). Select ALL cells; Conditional Formatting:
Formula is:
=NOT(ISERROR(FIND("yes",A1)))
