highlight dependent cells
Hello,
I'm having trouble explaining my question, so I've come up with a simple example. Column C Column D horse cat cow dog pig cat owl dog I would like the entries in Column C to highlight, if they match an entry in Column D. In this case, C5 (cat) and C7 (dog) would highlight....is this possible? Thanks so much! |
