Conditional format
I am trying to highlight cells that match
ie a b c d e f g 6 0 4 5 6 8 5 2 5 2 3 7 9 I want, if 5 is placed in the g cell (whatever line, lets say line 1) it will highlight the d cell in line 1 and the b cell in line 2. Am I making sense? |
formula=
=a1=$g$5 format as desireduse format painter to copy to other cells -- Don Guillett SalesAid Software "Sibbs" wrote in message ...

Select A1 to F2, then,
<Format <ConditionalFormat, And choose "Formula Is", and enter this: =A1=$G$1 Then choose your format, <OK <OK And you should get what you asked. -- HTH, RD --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please keep all correspondence within the NewsGroup, so all may benefit ! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Sibbs" wrote in message ...
