    formula/function to change text to strikethrough if condition met in adj cell

    Hi
    I am a total beginner in excel and am putting together a speadsheet list of documents and would love to be able to write a formula function to speed formatting up.

    Cell B gives the document number
    Cell C gives the year of issue
    Cell D gives name of document
    Cell E gives hyperlink if document is active, and states "withdrawn" if the document has been withdrawn.

    Now, what I would like to do to speed things up, is this:
    If I type withdrawn in cell E, I would like that text to be red and bold, and I would like the text in cell D to strikethrough.

    I would really appreciate your help!
    Thanking you

    got to conditional formatting
    use formula

    =$E1="withdrawn"
    then formatting --->strike through
    I think people forget the word "THANK YOU!!!!" Do you still know it???

    There is a little star ( ADD REPUTATION ) below those person who helped you. Click it to say your "PRIVATE APPRECIATION TO THEIR EFFORT ON THEIR CONTRIBUTIONS "

    Regards,
    Vladimir
