Default change pattern in a range of cells if a given cell =

Hi all, I am trying to colour a range of cells if given cells entry = say a
persons initials ie enter TB in a cell named Initials and a range of cells
turn to yellow?
I have looked at conditional formatting but cant see how to apply to a range,
also looked at functions and can't seemt to decided which to use.
I have a feeling that functions would be the direction to go just need some
advice
regards
pilgrim
