Default conditional IF-THEN

Greetings,

I have a column with different weekdays in different sheets.
What I want to do is this:

Whenever a user fills in Saturday or Sunday, I want the corresponding
row to turn red, this should be universal for all sheets.

Am I making sense and how would I accomplish this?

Thanks.

I forgot to mention, I'm using Excel 2007.

I can't seem to find that command?

Thanks.

Thanks Bernard,

But not useful to me, I need the entire row to change colour, not just
cells.

Thanks.

Then select the entire row before you call up the Conditional Foramtting
dialog.
I though you just meant "where do I find Conditioanl Formatting"
