Default CONDITIONAL FORMATTING BASED ON RESULTS IN A CELL

SCENARIO
I have an Excel sheet which contains dates in row 1 and the corresponding
days in row 2. The days are derived using formulas. For instance, B1 carries
the date 26 June 2006 and had been formatted to display 26. B2 = B1, and had
been formatted to display the day as MON.

CHALLENGE
I want to apply a conditional formatting (apply a background) to all the
cells that display MON.

I also wish to know if it is possible to apply conditional formatting to a
particular cell based on a condition in a different cell. Ie. in the above
example, is it possible to conditionally format the entire column B based on
cell B2?

Regards
