I would like randomly repeated names in column C to set the colour of the
font in column A (or for the colour of the font for the entire row).
If I use conditional formatting I can only set three names from column C.
However I have more names (8 - 10 ) in column C.
Am using Office 2003.

The next step up after you can no longer use conditional formatting
is to use an Change Event macro

There is an addin that would work the same as conditional formatting
